Speaking with calm conviction and drawing on years of pent-up wisdom, a video of Maye Musk, shared on X by @EvaFoxU, has gone viral — not for glamour or gossip, but for its raw honesty. In it, the 76-year-old model and dietitian, widely known for being Elon Musk's mother, was asked what advice she would give her younger self. Her response struck a chord across social media.
'I would say if you're in an unhappy situation, get out quicker. Don't think it's going to change — you have to get out', she said. 'And getting out of them could mean financial loss, it could mean you lose your friends, it could be because you're moving to a new city where you have no friends. And it still could be better than what you were in before. Accept the consequences, be responsible for yourself, but you can survive.' Silence followed.
