00:00We are here in Madrid, in the Plaza España, with a fabulous Dominican woman who has been in Madrid for 7 years, Yaminet González, known as La González, who has her Instagram account very well recognized with many followers.
00:20You tell me, I'll tell you.
00:22Well, very good. And we are going to talk about many things here.
00:26First, about her experience in this land, about her career, so promising, about everything she does for her community, always thinking about contributing, inspiring and serving.
00:39She has had a very long life as an influencer, as someone who really contributes to her community.
00:49But I also tell you, look at this woman, she is on point, in white, she shows that fashion is part of her life.
01:00Investing in the image we are talking about is something that also brings many benefits.
01:05I don't talk anymore, let Yami tell us, talk to us, let's go talking here in this place that inspires so much.
01:11That's right, I love it, I love it. I am happy to be here with you and to share with the community, well, pleasant, positive things in relation to my life here in Madrid.
01:25I arrived here 17 years ago and the truth is that I have gotten along very well. I am like an adoptive daughter, like many Dominicans who are in the Diaspora, who have integrated super well.
01:35They understand that this is already our second home. It has been difficult to unwind in a certain way, to cut the umbilical cord a little bit to come to foreign land.
01:46But the truth is that I am very happy to be here. I love Madrid, I love autumn, I love the people of Madrid and I am very happy.
01:55What you do, you are always in contact with your people. In another way, you have never left your land.
02:05I am very Dominican.
02:07I am very Dominican, I am very Colombian and I have also lived in New York for many years.
02:11But those roots and that pride for what we are, I think it is a determining factor in what we do.
02:17It is never forgetting where we come from and also taking the most advantage of that.
02:23We have many advantages as Latinos, as Dominicans, as Colombians.
02:27How do you mix all that in what you do, in your social networks?
02:31Because I see you doing many things. You have a fabulous sense of humor, but also a way of inspiring with the simplest things in our daily lives.
02:39Yes, you know that I believe that authenticity, above all, originality, knowing where you come from and where you are going, contributes a lot.
02:47I cannot stop being Dominican at any time.
02:51And I feel responsible that all the people who are here know what we really are.
03:00Where we come from, the servants we are, and the great influence we have on our motherland.
03:07We have been conquering since that time and being part of them very close.
03:14And I am very happy, really, because I believe that we can do great things with this mixture of cultures.
03:21I believe that within my community, using all the folkloric part, our wonderful language,
03:28the way of communicating, how expressive we are.
03:32That is wonderful, that people can know it.
03:35And within my content, working with humor, using positive psychology to educate in relation to emotions,
03:42and have that closeness and direct connection with my people.
03:46Joy, music, all these things can be part of our flavor.
03:50These things that we are proud of, and you have a beautiful example of that.
03:56Changing the subject.
03:58Because I, with Tintin Tijas, I am always appealing to that.
04:02Agencia Mundo Propio, which is the base for an image to be another of the intelligent components
04:10that will help us to gain many things in life.
04:13From our work or personal situation.
04:16That image is always beautiful.
04:18So, I want us to think about beauty tricks and styles that work for you.
04:25Look at this woman, a divine skin.
04:27She knows how to combine colors.
04:29A smile that you will see in any brand of dental products.
04:35How do you do it, Yami?
04:37What do you look for?
04:38What inspires you?
04:39To look at yourself in the mirror and say, I am my best self.
04:43Yes, I think that everything lies in working and getting to know yourself.
04:48I believe that the cornerstone of everything is self-knowledge.
04:53If you do not have the idea of what things go to your style, to your body,
05:00to the role you play in society,
05:03try to find people who guide you.
05:05And that is what I have done.
05:07I have done my courses in self-knowledge,
05:11to have a closet that allows me to develop my lifestyle.
05:20For example, I have many events in a week,
05:24so I have a closet according to that.
05:26It is also important to combine colors, to know what those tastes are.
05:34I really like neutral colors, but I am very risky from time to time.
05:39Look, I really like yellow.
05:42It gives me a very good vibe, it gives me a lot of energy, it lights me up.
05:46But I really don't have many yellow things.
05:48What I do have is clothes like this one, for example,
05:51that suddenly have that little dot.
05:54But I am a lot of neutral colors, monochromatic.
05:58I love monochromatic.
06:00I am not so risky with trends.
06:03I am a little shy with trends.
06:05I like the classic style more.
06:07I look for the classic style.
06:09Although suddenly, I don't know, I let go of my hair and say,
06:13no, let's go forward, let's go up.
06:16And I put on some clothes that make me get out of the closet.
06:20Very good.
06:21That is important.
06:22Sometimes breaking that monotony.
06:24And in your bag.
06:25What else is missing in your bag?
06:26What else is missing in that bag?
06:28Well, just a lipstick.
06:30A beautiful lipstick.
06:32A perfume can never be missing in my bag.
06:37Then some tweezers.
06:40Super free, just in case, like now.
06:42I don't know how we are going, but with the hair.
06:45And what else?
06:47My wallet can be missing in the bag.
06:50And some wet wipes.
06:52Wet wipes.
06:53They are impeccable.
06:54Yes.
06:55A trick that I see here.
06:56It is in the book of the Chintiquinas, which is also yours.
06:59You have it, I love it.
07:00Those pearls.
07:01Look at that luminosity.
07:02Well, apart from having a divine smile that illuminates everything.
07:05But look at the beautiful effect of that pearl necklace.
07:09And those pearls earrings.
07:11How they contribute.
07:13First, elegance.
07:14But also, really, a very special light.
07:18And a sophistication that, well, this woman has it all from head to toe.
07:22My heart.
07:24And you find that here the yellow has a cork.
07:28Oh, I love it.
07:30Super.
07:32And I am so happy to be here.
07:34We have shared Spring Colors Madrid.
07:36It is a support, also a special bet, for Latin designers.
07:41Colombians, Mexicans, Dominicans.
07:44Some already consumed.
07:45Others who are starting this fashion career.
07:48What would you say, not only to a designer, but to these people who are trying to start
07:54making a dream, but they don't dare, they are afraid.
07:57This positive advice, that voice of encouragement that only knows how to give calls in their own way.
08:02That everything they deserve is after that barrier.
08:07After the fear.
08:08Go for it.
08:09Understand that fear is part of the process, just like failure is part of success.
08:15Don't give up.
08:16Give it your all.
08:17Don't listen to the environment, which is often malicious.
08:21Minimize your wonderful ideas.
08:23Big projects can't be mediocre.
08:27Grow in the process.
08:29Live it.
08:30And work for your dreams.
08:31Don't give up.
08:32It can't be better.
08:34What a pleasure, what a privilege to meet this beautiful woman here in Madrid.
08:39That's right.
08:40I'm happy.
08:41I'm delighted.
