beautiful part of my reign is this the
people I could touch yeah I could not

um as a beauty queen also I think that
our biggest gift that we can receive
during our Reign is the love that we can
feel from other people right so back to

it's a great name it's very very nice

that the visual also focuses on one
thing that is people can feel like

great actually you are the first

um as the grand slam of uh 2022 Right
congratulations on that thank you thank
you so a lot of people have voted you to
be the most stunning queen of 2022. what
do you think about this title
first I feel so under I was telling
today that I was seeing me because
they're also in other Awards not only
for the beauty queen but also for the
pageants and I was seeing this good
International get so many awards and I
was like oh my God imagine I can get it
he got all the horses he's got internet
is the queen no Mr International but
thank God I got it but I believe this
this award it's beyond beautiful
physical appearance I believe like also
nowadays I believe to be a queen go
beyond physical appearance we need to
you need to train I say that we are like
an athlete we need to train for our
competition we need to develop ourselves
our experiences uh our languages so many
things we have to develop in ourselves
we have to be the best version of myself
and to be honest with you I don't think
I was the most beautiful or the one
that's
but one thing I always try to to focus
is always to be very determinate in
everything I do all my steps have always
strategy and focus 110 percent in what I
was doing so I think this award was not
only for the beauty but also I would say
the determination that I put in this
moment in my life yeah of course your
determination and I feel like you will
always go wholeheartedly right I think
you're so deserving with the title yeah
thank you so much I heard that you uh
started your beauty pageant Journey from
the age of three right and you've been
modeling uh since the age of 14 and
after that you were crowned as miscar
International how was that journey to
you
so sing sauce little kid as you said my
mom she put me Little Miss so I grew up
in this world I grew up in beauty
pageant but to be honest I really found
there was a purpose of my life when I
participate in Michigan International
in Costa Rica when it represents in
Brazil that I really I could really feel
it to my skin because when you're a kid
you go you have fun but you really don't
know
but then when I was 16 years old I felt
I was like wow I feel like I found my
purpose I want to do this one day I want
to participate the biggest beauty
pageant and I wanna get a crown from my
country
and so have you been in my life since
always
being someone who can represent our
country is always a brand and the dream
of any girls right so
um this is not your mom's guidance right
is it is it your choice so it became
with my mom guidance actually my mom
when I was in her belly she said that
she had a dream that God told her that
would be miss one day but my mom she was
Miss also before my aunt she was miss my
grandmother she was me so I came from a
family of Misses so always being I joked
always being our blood to be amazed but
yeah she had this dream and when I was
young also she used to cut pictures of
like beautiful babies and glue in in the
uh well we have like a wall thing and
she said my mom and my daughter when she
born she's gonna participate and she's
gonna win the the biggest pageant ever
so it was kind of a prophecy different
yeah but after I became my dream when I
was 16 years old I think my mom
prophesied so much that everything I was
like I found my dream nice and I heard
that you also graduated with MSC in
finance from London college right yes
that was so awesome
um why did you decide to turn over the
new Leaf into uh this beauty pageant so
after my 16 they participate in the
mission International I always wanted to
have a degree yeah I wanted to to work
and to experience and also I knew it
would help me so much as a person and we
know to be a queen we need to bring
something more to to be able to inspire
other people so I wanted to have
experience in my life especially the
educational one so I study finest that's
the degree like the most and I found a
job after in wealth management but I
always knew it there would be a point in
my life I would come back to Brazil and
I would focus myself 100 in the
competition so I work it almost a year a
year in a way of management but then I
spoke with them I said I need to come
back to Brazil to follow one dream of
mine and they were so supportive they
said are we gonna do a huge Banner for
you
she worked in Thompson Chain though
nice so beauty pageant is actually your
true calling right yeah also after Miss
Grand International what's your plan
I love this creative side so I really
want to start acting and also I love
makeup which with beauty queens we
always very connected yes so I want to
open my my own business with makeup and
also acting
[Music]
um Beauty
um clearly an advantage right so have
you ever come up with any difficulties
or any judgments from other people there
is always I believe not only in Beauty
as it was before I work in finance so
many times I I suffer some prejudices
like ah she's beautiful she's not smart
so I could see that was much harder for
me to find a job than some of my
colleagues
so I I think everything we do in life we
always suffer uh
some prejudices from people but I think
the the key is we always close our ears
from these noises from outside and
believe in our potential nice
dependently what we follow so as you
know our body women's body changes over
time is it stressful for you to always
have to maintain a good body measurement
a beautiful appearance
link to be honest with you
I had a lot of problems already when I
was younger when I was modeling at the
time I was modeling I want to model in
some different countries was that
measurements like
1960
and the type of my body I have a large
bones okay like I'm very large so it was
always very hard for me to get in that
measurement so I lost a lot of jobs
but one thing I found especially in
competition is that they look more of
the harmony of your body they look more
like you the best version of yourself
they don't look too much of the
measurements when you arrive in The
Runaway and you show your power your
personality your performance they're
looking in the total they don't look
like I she's 60 she's 90. yes she's good
no and usually modeling they used to
this now it's not anymore so before I
used to have some problems but I found
myself a beauty pageant and I started to
love to eat healthy love to take care of
myself yes
yeah I really think that confidence is
actually the key right exactly it's it's
not what keeps people is not our
appearance is what is inside right
definitely a confidence to change
everything yeah change everything if you
arrive with confidence independently
what's your size you always You're Gonna
Stand Out yeah people always gonna see
your real Beauty because that's our real
beauty that shines from inside of us
when we are confident people can feel it
yeah you said everything now confidence
is a beauty it's beautiful would you
prefer a natural visual or an artificial
one the artificial one I'm talking about
is the like the plastic surgeries stuff
like that
I would go to do whatever you feel best
yes
me personally I don't like too much of
anything because you can see when people
get like do too much of everything in
their life you can see that they did a
lot it doesn't look natural I look more
I like more natural look
um this natural team but I always
support if you if you feel like if you
change some like little thing you're
gonna feel more confident you definitely
go for it
yeah I could not agree with you more I
think that plastic surgery once you do
it if they really want to change
themselves they they really feel like
they're more confident in that look
rather than the it should not be like oh
other people saying that I don't look
good I should fix this no so I do
plastic surgeries no yeah definitely you
need to feel yourself ah maybe this can
be better perfect but not a lot of other
people think because if you hear of
other people think we're gonna do
plastic surgery the whole body because
each one ever driven you know I don't
like this I don't like that they're
gonna see Gonna Change everything you
say that you prefer a more natural
visual right so what is your recipe to
this to look to a natural visual the
recipe
me I eat healthy
I work out I love it to take care of
myself I learn it and after I started to
loving this ritual of skincare like
usually
I got this from my mom because since I'm
young my mom should bring me to the
sound and she teach me to put cream in
my hair and stay in the cell not taking
care of myself so I really enjoyed this
moment in my life so for me to to be
natural and to be Beauty and you love
yourself you take care of your body eat
healthy and be happy be happy because
you have so many people they can be like
the most beautiful ever but you don't
talk with them they're not happy they're
not grave they're not confident just
like wow
horrible
not beautiful anymore yeah
um yeah of course we have to be happy
and beautiful inside out right I think
that you have a very very
long journey with beauty pageant started
when you are very young so in your
opinion why are there so many girls
dreaming to be a beauty queen
I think each Paris have a reason to to
follow the car their career I think the
same as guys that want to be a football
player there is many reasons there is
the fame there is a spotlight but
there's also the passion to be doing
that
so I think it's a mixture of a reason
and each one of the girls they have a
special reason and that's fine it's
their reason in it that's fine with it
so in Vietnam
um some there's a lot of people saying
saying that when they see a beautiful
girl they'll say oh she's so beautiful
she should enter a beauty pageant but on
the other hand there are some other
people would say that
um pageant title holders are not the
beauty standards so what do you think
about this matter
uh like I always say I think Beauty Cuts
our eyes
but after what the person have to bring
is what make a difference and I feel
like a beauty pageant have has developed
so much together with our society and
now beauty queens go as I said beyond
the physical is a strong woman the have
the courage to share her opinion to the
world and defense social project
specially defend uh causes of your
gender
so uh if this person has strong message
because I believe also if God gives you
Talent singing or beauty but you don't
use it for a big purpose that doesn't
work of anything yeah so I think it's a
mixture of beauty but also personality
and as I said Beauty it's a object
objective objective like people can see
one person's beautiful but don't think
the other one is beautiful though I
don't think it's weird so it definitely
yeah
how many months are there till the your
final walks
um
how much time do you have left April or
March I'm lost which month April yeah
next Wednesday six six months okay so is
there any plan yes it goes so fast are
you gonna cry during your final walk
actually I want to talk about this I'm a
person that I cry like everything you
see that's a bit sentimental I cry even
like all of my sisters my grand sister
they're gonna pass the crowd or
something they're gonna do a menage for
them I always cry
I was like this girl she cry all the
time imagine the day she's gonna pass
the crowd you're gonna watch the stage
I'll be I'll be worried because my
makeup that they need to be like all
waterproof yes don't worry you we got
you covered I know so good makeup
artists you guys know guys production
amazing very happy to come everything
yeah
thank you
um so during your several last months
um do you have any plan for charity
so I have my own charity which called
beyond the help people with the ability
I found it because of my grandfather in
his memory because he was tetraplegic he
became tetraplegic when he is 13 years
old
so I have some associations that I
always support and donate and I have my
website to give visibility for these
associations is
www.beyondprosh.com.br I don't know
where you're gonna put here
nice but also I have the opportunity
with Miss gun International to these
different types of social projects like
today we went to visit with Miss Grand
Vietnam One charity to help people with
disabilities and this charity that I
could see other types of disability
which I never saw before and I got so
touched by it
so and and this I was he reflects with
myself always made me remember how we
need to start helping other people how
we need to start to worry less about
ourselves superficial things being
selfish selfish and really think like
how can you add in other people's life
if it's not financially throughout a
kind word through love or a prayer but
this is very important I don't have this
schedule yet of what charities we're
going to be visiting because it depends
on the country gonna visit and where
we're gonna be
but I really like that miss going
International supports fully always
going to a country and attend a
different type of nice charity so during
your time
um being in this industry have you ever
faced with any Temptations and how did
you overcome it Temptations like money
or fame
like that do you have to trade off
anything
trade off no no because
I came from I was raisy with my values
and my beliefs
so I always keep this humble uh
personality anywhere I go because as I
said I believe there's a key of life
when we die no one gonna take anything
from you yeah apart from our souls
so to be kind to one another that's
always my first mentality
and to be grateful and I'm sure the
other things like money success they
will come what is the one message that
you want to send to the young girls out
there
to never give up on their dreams I know
sounds cliche you must have heard from
many people but that's what I did
and it was us telling you with the
example of my grandfather because he
became tetraplegic with his 13 years old
and even seeing life telling him no
he always answers life yes and he
followed his dreams he became a lawyer
he had a farm beautiful family four kids
12 grandchildren
so with his his experience in life that
seeing he passed through this difficult
circumstances and never give up to
achieve greatness in his life to to
follow his dreams
uh always inspired me to also never give
up also always be determined to follow
what I truly believe I wanted to to do
in my life and I did this in all the
areas of my life before I was in finance
and now after after in the pageant and
when you do this I'm saying never give
up because always gonna appear at people
Society stereotypes telling you no
you're not capable better you change
what you like better find something else
but it really depends of you how much
you invest in yourself I know for some
people may be harder because of some
obstacles but it's not impossible
because if that's really true your dream
inside of you never give up because you
can make it yes never give up if you
really want something the whole universe
will conspire to help you get it right
definitely yeah totally believe this so
one last question
um what is the one thing that you always
feel like is very hard to get it off
your chest
that you can say it in this podcast just
feel free to say anything anything you
want if it's hard to get out from my
chair it's gonna be hard to come out now
oh my God they kind of want something
that you have never said
um
okay some secret baby I don't know uh
well we were talking about a body and
appearance and all of this and I said
when I was a modeling when I was younger
I had some problem to fit in like the
the exactly measurements
so I bet I've been through some like
times in my life that I need to find
myself questioning myself and do I
really fit
but I want to tell all of you girls
girls you do don't look at like your
measurements but look like be the best
version of yourself
uh always be the the best measurements
that your body can bring and not I'm not
telling you to like I just said don't
look at the measure don't take care of
yourself no do it do it but for your own
uh for your own like because you want to
you feel good now because of of pressure
then you're gonna start to feel in bed
and not you're gonna be like a balls of
snow they're gonna get bigger and bigger
and bigger and until you break it you're
gonna have time and I've been through
this when I was young it was just 14
years old in modeling industry until I
found a how to
to love my body to to learn how to to
eat correctly it took time and if I know
if I had someone that been through this
before and was sharing here with me it
would be much easier for me to like step
down and say like wait I'm beautiful I
just gonna eat this and this would be
the best version of myself love myself
and I'm gonna find great opportunities
in my life like I did in pageantry
that's what I where I found myself
