00:07so I moved to Miami almost two years ago and I'm loving it it's I think it was the
00:14best decision I made as soon as I moved I got pregnant with my son Kai and I was
00:18trying for so long so I think the Miami water really helped me out and yes I'm
00:24so close to Brazil here I'm close to my family so I'm definitely much happier
00:29in Miami it had always been my dream to be a mom it was my biggest dream to be a
00:34mom and you know when you want to be a mom so bad you have so much
00:39expectations right so I definitely got caught by surprise in a lot of things
00:46especially you know postpartum the birth like I thought I was gonna have a very
00:50easy birth and I stayed in labor for over 24 hours was really hard I ended up
00:55having a c-section and also the postpartum hormones like it's so crazy
01:01you're so emotional after giving birth and I remember feeling guilty because I
01:05didn't want to be sad you know I had my baby it was my biggest dream but there's
01:09a lot of little things that you know being a mom comes with and but it's the
01:15most magical thing that has happened has ever happened in my life I feel complete
01:23100% I think it's hard because you want to be present in your child's life like
01:3224 7 right and you feel guilty all the time I feel guilty when I leave the house
01:40like to go have lunch and I'm not with him if he did something different I feel
01:44very guilty when I need to travel for work and I'm not home for three nights but
01:50it's a part of it it's part of it the time I spend with him it's really quality
01:54time and I'm a hundred percent there one thing I started to say after becoming a
01:59mom it's not about the amount of time you spend it's about the quality time
02:06that you spend with your child
02:10it was actually something that my followers asked for they're always like oh
02:14you should have your own brand and I was like hmm it seemed so far away at the time
02:20and then I was like you know what I should just do it the opportunity came
02:23and what inspired me it was really like my style my connection to Brazil I'm
02:28Brazilian my Brazilian roots so the brand really has that like Latina vibe that
02:33sex appeal makes me really happy to see so many people wearing CCC I went to
02:37Coachella recently in April and I saw so many girls wearing my brain I'll come up to
02:44them like oh can I film you and a lot of girls will like look for me and like oh
02:49my gosh do you see I'm wearing your brand I wanted to see you so that is like
02:52priceless you know creating something working so hard on a project and then
02:56seeing it come to real life and people actually loving it
03:03it makes me so happy that I launched I lose is still a very new brand was so
03:07passionate about what Ella lose is all about like being clean cruelty free
03:12ingredients that are so unique like a lot of Brazilian ingredients that we
03:16really did so much research to have and seeing like our beauty oil be one of the
03:21best sellers out there and our bronzing category it's been so successful and I
03:26can't wait to show you guys like what's coming up
03:31next I try not to get pressured by you know I need to post every day or I need
03:36to look this way or that I really go with my gut in my heart and you know there
03:43are days that I feel amazing and I feel beautiful and I want to create content
03:47and there are days that I don't feel like myself I don't feel great and I
03:51actually look in the mirror I'm like oh my gosh I don't look good today and those
03:55other days that I'm like you know I'm gonna stay in my pajamas I'm gonna you
03:58know just work from my computer and then my bed and it's okay if I I'm not out
04:02there I definitely want another child I want Kai to have a sibling and but
04:11professionally you know I just want to really concentrate on my brands right now
04:15I think my book would be mostly about my life and challenges I face I have
04:21accomplished so much and not going to college made me work even harder to get
04:26to where I am
