00:00 When I entered the industry, I was a bit naive.

00:04 They always wanted me to be skinny.

00:07 If I eat a little, they'd be like,

00:09 "You're ugly! You should lose some weight!"

00:11 And we should stop pressuring women to be skinny.

00:14 Ouch!

00:27 Ouch!

00:28 You're hurting me!

00:30 I really chose this one because it's summer.

00:32 You're the one who's going to get hit by this.

00:34 I chose this one because it's summer.

00:37 True.

00:38 Okay, so I'll just talk about this.

00:40 So this was actually...

00:44 I'm not sure if Jude was already one year old here

00:47 or if he's not even one year old yet.

00:49 So basically, that's my postpartum body.

00:52 And it was one of the first times I felt good about myself again.

00:56 Because I didn't recognize myself after giving birth.

01:00 And so, when I took this photo, I was feeling myself again.

01:05 And I was embracing the curves and all.

01:08 This was a few weeks before you came back?

01:12 Yes, yeah. That year.

01:14 But Janela, since it's Women's Month,

01:18 how do you feel about women having that pressure to always look good?

01:24 I think in this day and age,

01:29 the types of beauty are really different.

01:33 We should stop forcing women or pressuring women

01:37 to look a certain way just to be called beautiful,

01:39 just to feel beautiful.

01:41 I think there are many different types of beauty.

01:43 You can be morena and beautiful.

01:45 You can be white and beautiful.

01:46 You can be skinny.

01:48 You could be curvy.

01:49 You could be curly.

01:50 You could be whatever.

01:51 There are so many.

01:54 You can be called beautiful in your own way.

01:56 So I think it's just about confidence.

01:58 And we should stop pressuring women to be skinny.

02:00 Because we all have different body types.

02:02 Sorry, I'm so passionate about this.

02:04 Because as a teen, I was very skinny.

02:08 And then, my body just grew into this.

02:12 I'm more of curvy right now.

02:14 Maybe not.

02:15 No, because I'm not the type of person who has a curvy body.

02:20 So there are some...

02:22 When I entered the industry, I was a bit naive.

02:26 So I was pressuring people to be skinny.

02:33 To look a certain way.

02:35 If I was a bit chubby, they would say,

02:38 "You're ugly. You should lose some weight."

02:41 But honestly, in some of those moments,

02:44 when I was a bit chubby,

02:46 I feel beautiful.

02:47 And I think that's what's important.

02:49 If you feel beautiful, then it shows.

02:52 That's it.

02:54 Own it.

02:55 Own it.
