11:17 am
at the paralympic games and put my model into practice here, which is that limits are only in our head. espinoza switched form power addressed as rider who lives with her 10 year old son, noah in panama. and i do like town by the beach and south west spain. as a young girl, losing a leg was a major set back. and after a year of tough therapy, florida met a woman who officer registrants to write. again, impulses became a key component of her rehab. she told me, well, why don't we try it? i think i told you it would be tricky since you mount the horse from the left side and i'm missing my left leg. and one day i went when we tried putting a chair on the other side of what the truth is, that it was a mess for me to get up there. but i and that's how it all started. and i decided to help her and she would give me classes. so i cleaned the stables and helped her clean the horses all on one leg because they did not have
11:18 am
a prosthesis get out. and so the 1st year i was always on crutches. it was good because it forced me out of the house and out of my comfort zone, people asked, how are you going to do it on one leg? you can clean staples and horses on one leg and if you really want something, you can do it right now. i get on the horse from the official side wearing my prosthesis. call me the power address. ours is a technical support with a ride that has 5 elements to get the horse to follow the instructions. that voice and the 2 arms and legs. even though florida is missing one element, she follows have coaches guidance and manages to accurately control whole stuff on your course, the federal model of the legal or the they're gonna be put into that will come in the model. and let's look up another in the i s a florida also challenge as a self to practice other sports in which normally the lack of it like would be an obstacle. she often goes climbing with the friends common on the line. and the
11:19 am
biggest challenge is my left foot, because obviously when i planted, i don't know exactly where it is. i don't know if it has gripped or could slip. it's kind of a matter for right, but you can climb. you're not sure. but you have to trust a little boy. then you have a subordinate the austin. i leave my left foot dangling in the air as a counter wait. because if i don't have a very secure hold, i'm falling down in the end, which means you have to trust a little that you can do it. and then the limiting factor is your head, because there are many moments where i am limited. when i say, come on, let's do it, we what we gotta do to quit blood, for example here, i don't have a less that holds, but i'll just go for it in quite a bit. if i thought was that a role that i must land on my right leg, just like when i get off the horse of your mind, any impact on that leg is terrible because i have no left joint and it's very unstable. i'm very little is left of the leg regardless, i have a piece of to be alive, but of what it is fractured with 3 times and it's not suitable for impact. the equestrian spots are expensive. it's a couple of equipment costs. florida works as
11:20 am
a model and photo shoots responses. at the same time, she has a role model for inclusion and diversity. if it wasn't for these collaborations, i couldn't do what i'm doing because i can't afford it. practically all the material i have is sponsored and i tried to help them in my own way, was by letting them use my image and doing photo sessions and those who sent in the portal. and she's very brave to do many i realize that photography helps me a lot, but it will do you like it because initially i didn't like it, it scared me and i was very ashamed for my body. but it made me see that there are many types of beauty and i feel pretty in the photos. the photos are always well received and there are many people who write to me. so they tell me they'd like to do it to whatever embarrassed another way. or they tell me it's helping us to see it. it's better to be visible rather than stay hidden at home with the attendance across a committee. i think i have a place in the society and emission and i gets
11:21 am
a very nice purpose to be able to help others other than us levied by caesar without insecurities with their natural beauty or desire to live. and i like being able to help them, and i especially like that strength because she's the mother who's busy all day, still asking yourself what more she can do her job. the horse guy just depends on because that's always the problem. when you want to do everything for him, you always want to do everything. sometimes she can't do it and sometimes she's strong. and other time she collapses and says, i can't do it life. and it's rare, but it does happen. well yeah, i mean i'm relying it's to my there are those moments because we're all human. the suddenly the rare. but she loves to. yeah. and then with the sometimes the pressure was too great. florida has a marketing job as a model, a single mother and the top power athletes pursuing qualification to the paralympics in a sports that requires a great deal of commitment. bought as carmen says, florida loves the challenge temporarily because i always go with everything.
11:22 am
everything was against us. no money, no horse, nothing you know saddles. and here i am competing with a horse with the saddle. so i keep going through and obviously the other. see if i trade 6 days a week in the afternoon, i'm with my son. that sort of the house groceries, my online job, 2 hours minimum every day of social networks promoting brands uploading content. i can't give more with the circumstances. i have. i have a son, a job. i have a house and i am alone. so then i'm going to belgium to compete, and my mother is coming over from switzerland to take care of my son for 10 days. i will bring my son along for 10 days, and a truck it comes with the competing is the easiest. it's everything else behind it that's a lot. it's a lot as much. florida helps amputees in an online support group and use a social media to promote the acceptance of different body types. she has waited a long time to share special videos to sign up for that. this might be the toughest post i've ever shared, but i'm sharing a video i made for my son, be the okay, so what i'm, you know, i'm at
11:23 am
a certain age. i realize people were looking at me because i was different that in that and also i disguise myself down to the young lady and i gave you the name and we did little plays with the disguise down and told funny stories that i talked about how people reacted in the same thing. it was a way of getting over that little trauma, but because there was a moment where he felt to tackle around, he took it badly that people were looking at me that i said at the moment we might be that the video was 1st made for him. right, and i've never published it or shown it to anyone as it gets here. we're going to expose ourselves completely and i feel completely naked. it might be more scary for me to show my stuff that to show my naked flooding games and the place and the 2nd . so here it is. all of us left just to share it. florida says the video, even though it scares a competitive share, know to come look at the last thing away. the pain could i wish to really, i've recorded this video a few years ago when know i started to realize that i was a different mazda service, that i'm, you know, he saw that through the way other people looked at me. but i can't teach my son, you have to be brave if i don't lead by example. so today i'd be everything for
11:24 am
a better and more inclusive and warm, pathetic world, and i dedicated to my son. thank you for always being so brave and i love you the, the time has come. florida is in madrid with doubts on your own to compete at the 2nd, the full qualifying events for the power olympics, competition days, a highly demanding type. any young have to deal with fatigue and because of the long hours i'm here all day and you don't sleep much. and when you get up very early, there's stress and physical fatigue because i'm also not used to writing the horse twice and one day to prepare everything, assemble and disassembled twice. i have to clean the material. now i'm here from 7 am to 8 pm to a better that these events also an opportunity for florida to meet and engage with sponsors in madrid. florida meets sandra, who represents the brand she models for an exchange for sponsoring how request 3
11:25 am
and outfits. click on more, i wanted to collaborate with her because i loved her story and she's a fighter. i contacted brands and asked them if they would be interested and they were fascinated, you know, and they didn't understand why they didn't have any pair of questions yet. and when they saw her, they said, go ahead. i mean, we don't use her as a model for people with disabilities or, you know, for us, she's a model underwriter, like any other writer in the end, what people get is that she has had a blow in life and has risen up to it. and she has a dream and goes for it. and every morning she gets up with that cool. yeah. ok. think this is a life lesson. i really couldn't compete with those sponsors because i don't have the financial means or the possibilities. so this is a project that benefits all of us. yeah. you know, if they're not here, i might have the best horse and skills, but i can't go and compete with the name. i don't understand why there are more sponsors or just let because if you're a writer, you know how difficult it is in on top of it, you're missing a leg. i think it's amazing. okay. you can see what she achieves is really
11:26 am
spectacular. and one time because he's here right, and she's much better than a writer with 2 legs and arms. florida hits to the hotel to take a break and review the exercise one last time. anyone on a physical level for me it's complicated because there's a lot of ground to cover for them. these are very large facilities. i usually walk about 20 to 30 kilometers in a competition weekend. now i'll take off my prosthetic legs, rest a little, relax on it, and think about the course. i'll compete in that 5 pm. those are the letters that are in the track at each letter you have to do an exercise, and if the judges will score you, not only on the exercise itself, but also the accuracy and see, but some of them, a less upkeep of the now flow. and it begins the competition, the
11:27 am
motor is on that thing and she finishes good. it's a good results, but not enough to secure a place at the power olympics. she will have to score higher, the remaining 2 events and back home slaughter meets up with cut them in, in the cs or another function to this time the concept is promoting, told her in some acceptance if that works. so we're here today to do a photo session with lucille, the photographer, and carmen the makeup artist. today we have chosen it being consumed use, which is a japanese art. when the, when a ceramic object breaks the pieces that a good back on and decorated with gold, it's symbolizes rebirth. because of something breaks, it doesn't mean that it can't have a 2nd life. it can be even more beautiful through the sessions we do together. so we try to make another type of beta visible. we think it's important for people to feel a little better. just because someone has some kind of physical disability or an issue with their body. they can still show it, feel good and do something beautiful. but the, you know,
