Living with a lifelong medical condition is like taking on life's twists and turns with an extra load. It's not always easy, but people dealing with this challenge are like everyday heroes. They show us that no matter what life throws at you, there's a way to keep moving forward. 

Valeria sits down with Brazilian-American fashion mogul, beauty influencer, and entrepreneur, Camila Coelho. 

In this conversation filled with unexpected twists and remarkable resilience, Camila shares her battle with the heavy stigma that often surrounds epilepsy, the restrictions it imposed and her very first seizure at school made her feel incredibly different from her peers. But what truly shines in her story is her unwavering determination. She takes us through the challenging path of managing epilepsy while pursuing her dream of starting a family. 

Camila tirelessly advocates for epilepsy awareness and fights against its stigma. This episode is more than just a personal journey; it's a compelling call for change and compassion. It reminds us all to confront prejudices, embrace vulnerability, and find strength in a supportive community.
