Tia for The Inheritance / Channel 4
Age: 26
From: London
Occupation: Health & Wellbeing Advisor
Why did you apply to take part?
“I’m naturally a very competitive person. TV is always something I’ve been interested in and to be on a show where I’m only required to be my authentic self fits me like a glove.”
Tell us about yourself!
“I’m a Gemini. We’re known for being quite two-faced, but I feel that is wildly incorrect. It’s not that we’re two-faced, but I feel like we’re adaptable in all situations. I’m going to bring that skill with me, being adaptable. I’m very authentic. I can’t help but be myself. I’m extremely expressive, which can be like a power card, because I can comfortably and confidently state my case.”
Are you good at influencing others?
“I’m naturally a people person. My ideas can sometimes be a little bit outlandish, so not everybody is for it, but when they start to see the results, they’re normally swayed. I feel like once you build your reputation of having good ideas or those ideas having a good result, people will start to trust you more.”
What would you spend the money on?
“I want to start a family business. We don’t really have a lot of money. We’re okay, but we’re just living pay cheque to pay cheque, and I don’t want that for us anymore. I’m trying to start some generational wealth. I’d like us to work together as a family to really put back into the community too and create something that makes a big difference to people’s lives. My mum is a youth worker, she does fostering. My sister is going to be a social worker by the end of the year. My auntie has been a social worker for over two decades. I’ve got a whole team around me of able people that could come together and create something great.”
The Inheritance begins tonight at 9pm on Channel 4.
