MAKE COM TEXTÃO (2021): Respostas

Hey everyone it's a bit chilly here not that cold but it got really cold all of a sudden It's warming up and you know snow comes when it warms right So now it's coming close to zero because it was minus 15 and then it started snowing hard and snowed uncontrollably We've got 60 cm of snow It's like that on the ground so it's practically half of me There's so much snow guys and then the The little dog has trouble going outside to do his business his duty and then the husband You have to walk slowly so the little dog can sniff the grass It's fun really easy I'll do a make with a long text here for you all generic theme since I've been doing these lives a lo legal right And Cris Guerra's live and Ana's yesterday Ana Fonte Gris the profile — those two livestreams generated me so many questions then questions about how I came to live here the difficulties I faced As a woman over 40 with gray hair facing all these factors in the job market what was my decision So I came here to talk a bit about myself to share this story this part of my life my journey Career I was already working in Brazil at the same company now I work at Google here in New York and I was already working at Google in Brazil and I eventually landed this opportunity in the United States and I wanted to Why would I be afraid of moving abroad I've lived overseas before—I lived in Miami between 1999 and 2004 and I fel I miss living abroad deeply I never truly adjusted to coming back to Brazil it's always been so difficult legally obviously I love being around everyone and all that but I'm extremely shy and I was constantly in a state of constant alertness in the car on the street when you see things happening to people very close to you With people like that around we get a bit scared so I didn't want to keep living in Brazil out of fear And a bunch of people are going to talk oh what nonsense it's everywhere yes it might be nonsense but it's mine e way I used to cope I was constantly anxious and stressed unable to heal from it and living abroad It gives me that security it might be fake for many but for me it's real so my motivation was that—I like the American work style and I adapted to very well an American company an American workforce highly globalized so I I like this I enjoy being in this environment so these are the reasons behind my choice And then they ask me ah you had difficulties didn't you when exactly did that happen in your life That happened after my 40s so yes I think my life got better in my 40s I moved here after turning 40—I turned 40 back in Brazil threw a big party actually my birthday's right now In February I miss that—throwing big parties Until last year I used to throw one every year but there hasn't been a proper party in ages because I don't know that many people here but I love a good party my friends know I feel The greatest longing will make me sad this year as I'll be in isolation and won't be able to do party finally we do what we can right make do with what we have but I turned 40 in Brazil working Google and everything else followed and then everything started happening the next year things began to emerge at the beginning of the year opportunities started to emerge and by 2018 I was already here and I didn' I was gray-haired I dyed my hair I was already you know but I dyed my hair so no one could tell I was I used to have long hair but I cut it short—none of those aesthetic things ever affected me It was driven by work nothing else—always been a personal choice for me but I know yesterday during the live stream This question also arose— it's easier for you guys working in the creative industry echnology and everything else it might be I think unfortunately it might still be I think we is walking toward a better place now where all of us are more accepted regardless of o matter how we look or what we like and want there's still one thing that remains unchanged e path ahead to walk so I'm lucky to work for a company that values diversity clusion which is I work in a group so to speak in a very diverse organization with people from all over ype new people old people gray-haired people non-gray-haired people people in short all kinds Diverse that's great for me—it's a blessing and that's probably why it makes it easier for me to get up That's the flag I've spoken so much about that I've shared my coaches' insights on it that I stand behind it women and everything else because I learn a lot right within the company Now personal life goes on en sometimes the doubts we have when making decisions are influenced by These factors also matter whether it's your partner your significant other or whoever is with you—we care about getting along well with this person so there are people who struggle with that partner doesn't accept it Some people struggle to look themselves in the mirror and face what they see—it's a matter of age There are people there with various struggles you know like letting their hair grow out or getting it tangled and stuff It's the same with fashion right I'm going to work today in my Snoopy t-shirt and that's totally fine Well I've got my hair in little ponytails and could pass for a girl but I'm not I've got a few wrinkles It's all good So I don't know this somewhat broad challenge here was a bit too wide-ranging I had asked me some things about work and my career and I can't recall them right now Where from I came earlier so creative industry is this—I'm a copywriter I work at an agency entirely and even though the agency is part of the isdir creative industry I still find the agency to be an environme so cruel to women More Girls is right here and it exists so I can't be lying The agency is a arsh environment with women women in leadership women of color people It's cruel in general but especially so for Black women for older women—I took part in one episode of More Girls inclusive discussing ageism and I always remember the fact tha when there is a person working a woman working for example in the cleaning field agency the cleaning lady at the agency everyone calls her Auntie There's always something auntie-like grandmotherly about her Mom even for a man there are grandfathers uncles right So the agency is an environment that despite being creative it's extremely harsh on age and that needs to change too So you see it's relative 's more accepted because it can be seen as cool like ah it's pretty awesome and stuff but at the same time she has a huge prejudice So Ana was talking yesterday—she's an actress and she gets stigmatized if she's letting it go which is great because she's fighting against it and it's really cool that she can stay so she's being criticized for her hair and she's young she's not even 40 years old And then how about Yeah right If they want to because she's gray-haired she'll end up handling only women's paperwork but older ones So that's something we need to stay alert about the creative industry as well It's cruel it's cruel because it's an industry driven by image and it's an industry tha builds an image I think the conversation we're going to have here with Márcio Scavone is going to be so Legally speaking he's a top-notch photographer having shot countless celebrities and famous people e ones we know so many images you recognize you might not realize perhaps that they're his Right So we can talk a lot about that the role of the photo right In shaping this image what we choose to perceive as reality and everything else and what we find beautiful in what is Real and aging that kind of thing They also asked me about my tattoos—I do have tattoos I love tattoos but I know there are jobs that don't accept them In my case though it's not an issue Yes but there are people who hold prejudice even when there's no actual issue So at in the end we must learn to face it What I think is that nowadays we have e social weight of everyone moving to meet you at your level when you feel diminished when you feel harmed by the choices you make So I'm in favor of it I always do things with great humor but if I hear anything What bothers me I just speak up and that's it So I encourage you to speak up too okay This The video turned out long huh I talked talked didn't say much but that's it for anyone who wanted to know Why I came where I came from why I stay and whether the people will leave me in peace or not right Hey everyone Alright let's get to work See you later
