Blanca grew up in poverty. Immigrating at a young age from Mexico to the United States Blanca made a promise to herself that poverty would not define her. Leaving a violent life in Mexico behind Blanca lived in a garage for many years with no heat or hot water with her entire family. 

Blanca Blanco is an actress, model, and author who in her new book, Breaking the Mold, discusses coming from nothing to obtain success through hard work, tenacity, and always believing in herself. 

Blanca describes dealing with bullies, an abusive father, escaping a sexual predator while trying to become an actress, escaping the Woolsey fires with her life but losing her home and all her possessions. 

Blanca shares the tools she used to face grief, anxiety, and loss and rise above all of this and become a successful actress and fashion model. 

Blanca broke the mold and her book Breaking the Mold is an inspiration to all who read it.
