I love relatable stories.

It gave me a new fight, to change the way I felt about myself. So many girls believe they have to be two fricking pounds to be any kind of success, and that is not the truth. I believed it for so long, and it hurt me. But then at 27, I was like, They say I can’t be a lead because I’m not skinny enough, tall enough, pretty enough, light enough, white enough, Latino enough, whatever enough. That’s bullshit, and I’m going to change that.

"Now I can talk to more girls and tell them that any skin color, any economic background, any shape they were born into is perfect and right and strong and beautiful and enough because I'm sitting here, not the stereotype."

“I am always Latina. It’s a part of me, just like being a woman is, too. I believe both parties have been underrepresented. I don’t want to be singularly successful; I want us all to be successful. I think there’s room for multiple Latinas to be leads in TV shows and movies. When someone looks up at the screen and sees herself represented, it gives her power, a feeling that she can be or do anything.”
