Your high school Coach Michelle Leathers has been a catalyst that helped you pave the way to rise in your career with discipline and never stopping attitude of #stillstandingstillstrong mentality. Elaborate about her influence on your professional life?
Abby Ryan Mooring:
Coach Leathers is amazing, she taught me more things than I can write. She was my coach for basketball and volleyball. She was hard on me, but it was tough love that made me have thick skin and, in this business, it is needed because you hear the word NO a lot. Coach Leathers always talked about trying to get us ready for the real world and she did. I am so blessed to of had her as an influence in my life. And she is consistent and cares we still chat now. Discipline through sports works in this industry as well!
Namita Nayyar:
A tragedy that propelled your life?
Abby Ryan Mooring:
During the Covid pandemic, my “Papa” who never missed a ballgame and was always one of my biggest supporters had been suffering from the pain of 10 strokes over 14 years and his kidneys were shutting down. The last two months of his life hospice came in and he decided he wanted to pass away at home, it took a toll on my family and my heart. I helped care for him and it changed me and I’m thankful for all the years I had with him and I’ll honor his memory every day, he’s my angel!
Namita Nayyar:
You have done bold photo shoots for a number of fashion brands and on your Instagram handle @abbyrmooring. How you are so body confident and advice to your compatriots?
Abby Ryan Mooring:
I am bodily confident because I have a supportive family and close friends that make me feel good about myself no matter how I look. I also try not to think about how my body looks but focus on how I feel, I am not perfect at that I have moments where I do think about how my body looks and it does affect me. Some advice I would give is that not everyone has the same body, so try not to compare yourself. My agent Marina is always cheering me on and the industry has changed a lot with body types.
Namita Nayyar:
Your idea of a perfect date?
Abby Ryan Mooring:
My perfect date would be grabbing some dinner. A walk on the beach at sunset. I love easy conversation walks, bike rides and hiking. I love ballgames and have been blessed to be invited to so many professional sports events.
