Yeah I’m Sleeping With My Boss

Emily to Gremily

When passion meets purpose, beautiful transitions happen. Lin takes us on her fascinating journey from the glamorous world of car modeling to finding deeper fulfillment advocating for accident victims alongside her partner's personal injury law practice.
Lin's story begins unlike many in the car modeling industry, without the typical introduction through male family members, she forged her own path through genuine automotive passion. "I finessed my way into getting paid," she laughs, describing how she transformed her love for cars into a modeling career that spanned nearly eight years. While others used car modeling as a stepping stone to different careers, Lin remained because she truly loved the vehicles themselves.
The conversation takes unexpected turns through relationship territory, as Lin shares how meeting her partner at a car show led to both romantic and professional evolution. Her candid reflections on transitioning away from modeling reveal the challenges of identity shifts when leaving a high-visibility career. "I went from doing all these fun things to washing dishes and doing laundry," she admits, before explaining how helping accident victims through her partner's law practice has given her new purpose.
We also tackle thorny friendship dilemmas, including what to do when a friend confides about cheating on their spouse. Lin's perspective on loyalty and discretion offers valuable insights: "Friendship means that no matter what you do, I'm there... but sometimes ignorance is bliss."
Whether you're contemplating a career change, navigating complex friendships, or simply curious about the behind-the-scenes of car modeling, Lin's authentic storytelling and thoughtful reflections make this episode both entertaining and enlightening.
