17-year-old Lizzie Velasquez stumbled upon a YouTube video labeling her "The World's Ugliest Woman." It had over four million views and the first comment she saw was: "Will you please do the world a favor? Put a gun to your head and kill yourself." Born with a rare disease that prevents her from gaining weight, Lizzie is now 27 years old and has never weighed more than 64 pounds. She was crushed by that video, but Lizzie found the courage to fight back in a beautiful way: she's now an entrepreneur, anti-bullying activist, motivational speaker (her TEDxTalk has over 10 million views), author and leading lady in A Brave Heart, the documentary about her life. In this podcast, Lizzie shares her life lessons including a never-been-told-before story about the power of friendship. Get ready to be inspired.
