She Did It All Herself

For people who are born into this world with a deformity or a disability, they often become more accepting than you would expect. While most fully functioning people might feel bad for them and expect a sob story from them, people born unique sometimes turn out surprisingly understanding. Take this model for example. Shaholly Ayers was born into this world without one arm.  She had been bullied and often told that her life would never amount to anything.

Growing up in a negative space might break some people but not her. You see, Ayers did not let all these harsh words get to her heart. Since she was a little girl, Ayers had always dreamed of becoming a fashion model. But what agency would book a model who did not even have two functioning hands right? Ayers knew that agencies were not going to sign her, so she decided to take the matter into her own hands. She compiled her own portfolio and took the role as her own advocate too.
