People laugh in my face sometimes if they don't know who I am. When they find out that I model they're like, 'well what do you model?'

I have created a life for myself that I only thought was literally a dream.

I can never celebrate a success in my career without it being picked apart because of my size or 'my health.'

None of us have it all together; it just seems that way on Instagram.
