“Me gusta mucho ahondar en la parte más vulnerable de esta profesión porque creo que es importante. Nos persigue el fantasma de la inseguridad, la sensación de que nunca es suficiente, por mucho esfuerzo y trabajo físico y mental que hagamos. Aprender que si no te cogen en un trabajo no es un problema tuyo, que estás completa y que no eres menos válida por ello, cuesta. Pero, con los años, me he dado cuenta de que, cuanto más tengo que dedicarme a mi imagen exterior, más tengo que centrarme en mi interior, jamás descuidaría la segunda, sería el gran error de mi vida.” Blanca With Harpers Bazaar Espana

“I really like to delve into the most vulnerable part of this profession because I think it’s important. The ghost of insecurity haunts us, the feeling that it’s never enough, no matter how much effort and physical and mental work we do. Learning that if they don’t offer you a job, it is not your problem, that you’re complete and that you’re no less valid for it, it’s hard. But, over the years, I’ve realized that the more I dedicate myself to my external image, the more I have to focus on my interior, I would never neglect the latter, it would be the big mistake of my life.” Blanca with Harpers Bazaar Esp.
