[Music]

you are not happy with your body

they want to change something or do not like something

of the

the reason for this is because they have

said that we have been given a stereotype of

very closed beauty in which we have

that fit and good is really very

little achievable but we all want to be

he did good because I come I’ll talk about

this my life radically changed makes

two years when an idea a center

commercial

I take a series of events from which

by accident she ended up being a model and

I swear to you I was the last person to

it leads to you wanting her the last and

we ‘re going to graphically it’s not like they see

I now well what was the one I was not

fit in the mold of the pretty girl

I did not have the crooked teeth that

seen I used lenses like state

conceptual had particles and use

this was not thin was not the cheerleader

It was not the girl everyone

wanted and that he adored and that was the

then I believed and this made me have

an idea about me wrong

I think no idea about me that I do not

I liked it but there was no where and and good

this misconception

made me accept messages like guyana no

is that you can not assert because

you are very big called ballet way

I could or not anything is told

will play is very beautiful but your body

nobody tita out there what not ana guarinós

is very high you ‘re never going to get a boyfriend

and I ‘m going to buy the cats and I do not

ana is that if you had a little more and

a little less and always always one and

again my body was defining my

opportunities and what I wanted and

I expected and that went through the data

I came to resign that the good ones I’m not going to

to never be the perfect girl to the

lovely woman that everyone wants and then

it was already and what happened

good life gave me a turn with this and

I would like you to see the faces of the people

that I knew as I told them that I think I’m going

to be a model for more or less is yes

I had a picture I swear it was that and I

I swear that also to my face because the

people did not believe in me and I do not blame them

do not believe in me either

how are you going to believe in something or someone

good at something you do not know

they did not know there were models that

they were not size zero they did not know that

there was another kind of beauty that

they had always been consuming and

obviously I did not fit in the kind of

victory if not then be as well as

safe

I did not fit in that mold and a drawer

that mold still battle I got that

preach if I still take the

opportunity because he clicked on with a

I wish I had to make a change

I had no idea how I am

I always did I want to make a change

I want to change something came out this

opportunity and I took it I am very

pretty and leave your in the subject but it’s very

difficult to make this decision was the

thing that most fear has given me all the

life was terrified for the memory a

day before moving I have a knot in

the stomach and it was really since I

it’s happening you ‘re crazy what’s wrong with you

how are you going to leave everything as if you never

you have put a bikini in your life and you

only professional photo to passport

to leave everything to be a model of how

after what these what are you wrong and

these thoughts had both

time and time again in me and I

they said many times but they did not win

my mom has always told me that

fear should not prevent us from doing

things and your favorite phrase that I get

even in the soup is

the monkey of the winnowing in one of the

attacks according to those affected and then I

2020 and and well it was not easy at the beginning

because I was this real girl for the

of lenses and with three appointments and now

will have to change from the night to the

tomorrow to be the model and it was very

difficult because suddenly I felt that

he had to change who he was again

to fit had to be someone

that he was not or that he did not know what he was and

[Music]

street what I call the black hole to

people was a street of the black hole and

and this is a lot of people here is with the

Antlers all your spent energy toulouse

you spend all the gifts that has to be

someone who is not you spend all this for

pretend to fit in and you’re there is a

musical cycle or very vicious yanquis a

cycle that wears and that there is no way

to get out of there succeeding because

you’re always going to lose your again

I felt I was not as high

among the popular the number 17 that

be about 14 years old

then I already knew that there was yy

I decided to get out of there I decided that I no longer

believed to fill that stereotype and wanted

look for your own then and just something

I had never done

and well what I did was good before

nothing to understand that if it’s going to change and it’s going to

be for the right reasons be the

own because no change ever

is happy if it does not come from a desire

own

so when you win is your story and not the

victory of others

so what I did was to look for the

property of me I became hermetic to

that idea that definition of ana las

yale rules usa and totally

tight and there was nothing there was not

rejection there was no criticism that

move decided to make it my core the

I made a part so internal semi that

now the success or failure is not even

they moved a hair I did not care and this

it had its fruits

I relaxed and started enjoying myself

job

I started doing more I started

enjoy with the same super modality

enjoy with friends well and I think that

many times we have to remember this

that the purpose is not to arrive is

also enjoy what’s around

and and live the day to day that really

it goes very fast that I discovered later

already giving more relaxed and being

working since it began that equal no

I want to be bad any other modality

I want to look up my own definitions and

know why I do this and have a

congruence why I do it

I started looking for the definition of

beauty because I worked in that world

I did not know her then

I found two errors and two

problems with beauty on 1

the first was that it is a definition

very small and very short the beautiful sixth

we already did that many then

we fit into this definition and the many

we are outside the definition of

beauty and the second one is that always

is changing the beauty changes in your

mind in your mind in your mind each person

has its own definition and apart

change with the fashion changes did not make a

Once you enter another time we are all

kim the mouse or then it’s always

changing we modify then I

I wonder if it’s worth changing who

I am to fit today in something and in six

months since although in a year

answer was no then we can see it

the type of body that there is that the

people admire and that people want to go

changing with the decades and

unfortunately we are in a time

that people go and here in this hole

black and change and change and change by

seem yes to be fashionable everything

that today’s beautiful tomorrow is not and they live

there another choice that I had is that

good that experiences that I lived is that

the size defined me the size always

was defining the size not only

define our feelings when

we are in a tester frustrated because

not central the biggest size and we

we feel like elephants but

He also defined me when I wanted to

work an immediate

before being a model was that I was

Little girl wanted to work that to work

and I want to work and it got me

a brand store that just opened

here are everyone knows and

I did train myself firmly and finally

he arrived the day he was going to work and

I do not have the uniform

it was very frustrating because the uniform and

the clothes of the store

I had everything to work have the

I had the knowledge I was

prepared from that firm the papers but

I could not not have the size

This experience fills me

frustrations feel that I was a being

that did not deserve a job even for

the way he saw me orbit and me

number and I was very sad to know

that she was not the only one who was in this

this store are 7,000 have seven thousand

branches and has 156 thousand 156 thousand

employees

my body is the body ‘s own in

America then people who are more

great that I can not work there the

carving not only your total number of

crime room global action

the irony is that half already took me

a job and a half to another one that now

I love it and this experience

gave me to understand that there was nothing

bad in me for my size for ones

how many people work this store when I was

little girl when she was creating them dances dances and not

they left me was a problem of my size and

in the other world with started modeling

it was a blessing

It was like that because many brands

are starting their new section of

vice kurt and they wanted to support women in

this worried models then not

nothing had changed about me and now the

same

I just realized that the problem

I was in the people that are around and

your perception of beauty new me

I was in the nucleus and nobody moved me

that’s why I learned after that

I learned that there is no perfect body

I was surrounded by women with bodies

perfect and everyone had something of

complain and all of them and as I said

and all the same then I said ‘good

which the perfect body not because I

I’m going to perfect say how half

of jojoba and ticketek and hans and ya

later I understood that the perfect body

it’s your body you do not have others though

you want healthy is something that we have

to aspire because if it is not healthy

This is not suitable can not be perfect

although it looks beautiful and symmetrical and

It all started instead of seeking

perfection despite seeking health and

I tended what was the problem

people have a very good health idea

typical to the athletic to the nike

it is marked and it is there and not

a lot of people are yes but nothing

healthy because it gets stuff pages

and all that and there are people who are like me

the appointment and that is healthy

I can swear to the doctor today I’m

perfectly healthy

then I understood that health have

different packages to health have

different sizes and we have to understand

this to stop judging people by

your body

the size is not the same as health leave

say that because she is super thin

up to his person and day because he ‘s

super big is very sick

it really is very very very relative

and well many people tell me then it is not

that you detail it ex are

extremists to fatten the world

because they are promoting that

women do nothing and are neglected and the

gala I do not or really we are

promoting I’m not saying sit

on the couch he makes 30 donuts and stay

there to die

what I am saying is that this is

I mean it’s the reality is that I’m

fury

I’m saying it’s another kind of

beauty, the one you have not seen best and what

What I am proposing is that you give yourself

mind that this body is more common than

what he believes is just that we do not see it

posted very often saying no

I am willing to sacrifice my health

by fitting in a number to fit

one size nor my mental health nor

mental and physical because the stretch

it also goes expensive then it does not

you will find the change we all have

right to change something if we want if

you want to get in the super happened if

you want to dedicate yourself not to put as

we have this right to change

but it has to be for the reasons

correct it has to be because you

you want to change for you this way you’re going to

be happy when you achieve and if you do not achieve

post went but the moment you’re

doing it for someone else

while in this black hole and you can

stay there for life what

I lost all this and what I want

to let is not waste a day

more of his life feeling more so

that they see that the logic that would tell them

what will happen if I had

he’s sad since he can not work

permits and maybe not be here no

you can see if there are many days when

They were was in high school high

his friends go to the beach if you weigh

Muslim because I could not get

bikini then wasted many

spices removed I say why why

why did I torture my mom I see myself

bad of my friends and everything for something so

vain as superficial as it is sometimes the

body decided to invest my days

because these are no longer the new ones

days in things that transcend the

self-knowledge in helping others

in adopting this dog that wanted to travel

in things that really are going to be

happy not now that they are fashionable but

forever

we have to stop investing time in

the little guy in that if I put on the

little bag that goes but I’m

we have to stop investing time

things that go away because the thing is going

You ‘re going fashion and you’re time and

you’re going to be left with nothing

I understood that it is not the body and that

you need to change the perspective that

we have in the body

that’s when the real change is

and I dream of the day when all the

body types all the people of

all race of all condition better people

which is enfermita people we

faces can be represented and can

be in publicity living in

all the world

This way nobody will feel or

more or less than others nobody is going to

stay out and finally we could

achieve the definition of beauty that

is what I believe that beauty is

equality thanks
