Hello everyone welcome to White Rice Wednesday!! My 2nd White Wednesday Interview is Holly Hoffman from Survivor Nicaragua . She placed 4th during her season but has definitely left an impact and won the hearts of many.
1. What have you been up to since your season?
Holly- Its been crazy I never expected this to happen. January after the show I began my first speaking engagement and it became a full time job. I also wrote a book.
2. Take us back why ruin Dan's shoes?
Holly- Basically Dan really upset me. I felt he was making fun of me or picking on me. He was bragging its like I lashed out in a bad way. I took his shoes out and I was never going to tell him. It was a wrong move I regret it. Personally that's not who I am.
3. You and Purple Kelly had a similar story where you both wanted to quit you didn't but Purple Kelly did why do you think that is?
Holly- Kelly and Naonka were close at that point. A lot was pressure from Naonka. Kelly was struggling in the game. Neither though thought of the consequences. It was a combination of Naonka convincing her and Kelly thinking she had no chance at winning.
4. You seemed to have the biggest reaction when Naonka went on the reward even though she was going to quit can you explain?
Holly- We knew going in Naonka was going to quit. She was going to see how the challenge went. If you know your going to quit why not do something good and take the rice and tarp back. I personally thought it was a selfish move and it didn't bother her.
5.What is your opinion on people who quit the show?
Holly- Its harder than it looks. When your sleeping and its raining and raining for hours your not sleeping. When your at home you cant judge its a hard game physically and mentally. I can see how it could happen but its to easy. Quitting is the easiest thing you do in your life. When you keep going and you finish the self reward is the best feeling. The hardest for me is so many people want to apply and play those are the people I feel sorry for. The people that have to sit and watch when they would do anything to play is who I feel sorry for.
6. You came in 4th place is there anything you could have done differently to gurantee you a spot in the final three?
Holly- When it was me, Sash, Chase, Fabio and Dan Sash and Chase got water. Fabio and Dan knew they needed someone on there side. Fabio asked if I would flip and go in there alliance. I should have been in an alliance with everyone. So if I failed Fabio could bring me in. I think I was voted out because Sash convinced Chase to vote me off.
7.We just finished Millenials Vs GenX which was basically another old vs young season how was that season different than yours?
Holly-If you look at the casts the Millenialals they were free flowing. On our season they were more focused and establishing careers.
8. Would you ever play again?
Holly- I would sometimes I go back and forth. When I applied I never thought I would make it on. When I got a callback I was shocked. I learned a lot about myself I became an independent person. I learned what its like to survive in the real world. When it came down to it I think I would play again.
9. Are you excitied for Survivor Game Changers?
Holly- I am! I was surprised at the cast but im excitied. I think it will be a good season.
I want to thank Holly for this interview. If there is one thing we can take from Holly's story its that no matter what don't give up and think of the brighter picture to get you through the dark times.
