Born Without Legs: This Model's Inspiring Story

At 23, Kanya Sesser is proving that different is sexy. The stunning model has not let what sets her apart hold her back from achieving her dreams. If you're looking for a little motivation this Monday, look no further than Kanya. She was adopted at the age of 5 by a U.S family. Originally from Thailand, Kanya was left on the steps of a Buddhist temple as an infant because her parents could not handle the burden of a disabled child. She has never once felt like a burden to anyone, as she now lives a life of physical activity and fun! Kanya resides in California where she surfs, snowboards and runs regularly. Her favourite thing to do is get out and skateboard (using her hands to balance her, of course). She's training to compete in the 2018 Paralympics which are being held in South Korea. Kanya also became a model at the young age of 15 and has been working for sports brands in front of the camera ever since. “I love showing people what beauty can look like.” she explains. "These images show my strength. I was mainly doing athletics shoots then as I got older I got into lingerie modelling. It's something fun and it shows my story — I'm different and that is sexy, I don't need legs to feel sexy." What are your thoughts on Kanya's amazing story? What inspires you to stay motivated?
