My struggles have shaped me into a mentally and emotionally strong person, let alone physical strength. I am ever so grateful to L'Oreal Paris for bringing alive my story so beautifully to the audience. My advice to every woman out there is to believe in yourself that you can achieve anything you set your mind and heart to, all you need to do is discover your true potential and channelize your energy in the right direction."
