Initially, the organizers planned 40 minutes for communication, but a lively dialogue and interest in the personality of 69-year-old May Mask, gradually turned into a discussion of the meaning of life and a photoset with numerous fans.

About happiness

May Mask admitted that there were many obstacles in her life, but she always followed her path and clearly understood what her mission was:

"For me, there was always happiness in motherhood, I felt needed and needed. I have children, ten grandchildren, and it's incredibly motivating not to stop there and do everything that they would be proud of me. Now that I'm approaching my 70th birthday, I know that they need it! I did not have helpers, nannies, I was a single mother and combined all this with a career. Was it hard for me? Of course, sometimes my children were forced to attend fashion shows and photography. While I was working, they saw how hard everything was given to me. Proceeding from this, I can say with certainty: "A woman should rule the world, because we are kinder, able not only to take care of ourselves, but also of others." Having overcome the difficult path of becoming, I understand how important support now is for my children and I help them with their grandchildren. Honestly, it's much harder than walking on a catwalk or flying around the world. "

About family values

The model and the entrepreneur noted the importance of raising children in the framework of a love for work and study:

"My parents were workaholics who constantly strived for knowledge, were honest in their relations. I'm glad that they managed to instill all these qualities to me, my brother and sister, and we, in turn, to our children. Watching them and gaining my life experience, I always appreciated the integrity and tolerance in people. "

A woman must develop and inspire

Despite his age, May Mask constantly surprises with his impeccable look and tightened figure:

"I feel very well aware of the size models plus size. At 30, I decided to relax and allow myself to enjoy dietary hazards, in my diet there was ice cream, chocolate, chips. Then I lived in South Africa and favorably differed from other models, but with the transfer to Canada my happiness ended. I had to conform to the world model standards, I regained the 6th size and could confidently declare myself as a dietician. Now I know a lot about nutrition and a healthy lifestyle. My experience and knowledge help and inspire many women. "

The mission of strong and successful women in supporting each other, a constant desire to learn something new and to realize this in practice:

"I believe that a woman on leadership positions can achieve more than a man. Especially if she has support and an example to follow. I like to read about successful women, they inspire me and motivate me. And when I see female names among politicians or top managers, I always rejoice. We are constantly learning, we are worthy to be "on top"! If a topic appears in communication or work with which I am not familiar, then I immediately climb into the Internet and devote time for an in-depth study of the issue. In the world of modern technology, it's silly not to use such a global source of information! "
