8 women who inspire us answer the question “What would you say to your ‘millennial’ self?”.

Maria gave me the idea. At 18 years old and just entering university, he confessed to me that he needed a push not to give up and abandon his dreams. The coronavirus and the crisis were affecting her too much and she had the feeling that she was wasting the best years of her life. That is why COSMO decided to act and has contacted eight pro women from our country who, looking at their self millennial, they have a tip for you. Because although they are all great professionals with a cool vibe, they have also suffered and gone through super complicated streaks. Edurne Pasaban, the first woman in the world to reach fourteen eight thousand, fell into a terrible depression after being dumped within a week of getting married; the comedian, presenter, interpreter and always brilliant Silvia Abril had to put up with a teacher who told her that if she didn’t lose weight she wouldn’t be an actress; Eva Isanta, protagonist of The one that looms, one of the three most viewed series this year –after 13 seasons! -, she confesses that she was slow when making decisions; Encarna and Toñi Salazar, or better, the everlasting Azúcar Moreno, had to break down barriers to deal with the prejudices that prevented two gypsies from becoming stars; Ana Locking, National Fashion Design Award 2020, felt “the weird one” and it was not easy to deal with it; Susanna Griso, a journalist with current events –and an Ondas– in her veins, knew how difficult it was to find a place in the news, and the columnist and writer Rosa Montero, respected, loved and admired for her great stories and for having promoted the feminism, she looked ugly when she was in her prime! Each of them stars in a video in which she tells you what she would say now, with everything she knows, to that innocent girl full of projects that she was; what you regret (or feel proud of), and what is your advice to find the way that helps you fulfill yourself and be happy.

After that, she has done many things: she has been a mother, she has become one of the most respected voices in self-improvement… However, she is not going to tell you about this in her video.
