Valentína nás v nasledujúcom videu prevedie jej cestou zamieňania vlastnej hodnoty s extrémnou štíhlosťou. Ako hovorí, poruchy príjmu potravy nie sú voľba a ako spoločnosť by sme sa mali viac zamerať na ich prevenciu.

My self-worth is not derived from the size of my waistline
In the following video, Valentina takes us on a breathtaking journey through her suffering with anorexia, a time when she based her self-worth around the desire to be extremely skinny, and shares what eventually helped her get out of this dark place. As she says, an eating disorder is not a choice and society should focus more on prevention.
