This week, Jason is joined by Love Island season 7 breakout star, Olandria Carthen!
Known widely as the Bama Barbie, Olandria played the long game in the villa and emerged as a fan favorite for her strength, poise, and genuine approach, not just in romance but in life. She is also killing it in the corporate career as well working at Otis Elevator Co. She is proof that brains and business acumen, and truth to herself can lead to a breakthrough reality TV star. Post-show, Olandria is balancing the corporate grind with modeling, brand partnerships, and living out her personal brand rooted in southern authenticity.
Olandria opens up about the uncertainty of how she’d be perceived by viewers, the misconceptions she wants to clear up, and the most surprising parts of watching the show back. She reflects on growing up as the oldest of six with a single mom, knowing modeling was always a dream, and the journey that led her to Love Island. She shares how she prioritized building a genuine connection, what her personal and professional plans look like moving forward, and why she’s staying open to different career paths. Olandria also gets candid about her relationship with money, the way Nic makes sure she has equal opportunities, and the support she’s found in her friendship with Chelley. She talks about how church keeps her grounded, her passion for community work, what she wishes she had done differently on the show, and how she manages her mental health while navigating a new reality.
Olandria reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!
