I've grown up by the beach all my life, and I almost get anxiety if I haven't been swimming for a couple weeks or a month. It kind of builds up, so I try and get out as much as possible.

I've always been kind of uncomfortable just on the beach in a swimsuit. I'm never my most confident in a bikini on the beach, especially when you know people are looking at you, and they expect one thing because of what they see in the magazines, and you might not look that way. It's always been a scary thing for me.

The thing to know is love yourself and find the bathing suits that make you feel comfortable and just rock it.

I started thinking: 'Okay, what's wrong with wearing a bikini? I look better than I looked in quite a few years, so why not? What am I afraid of?

In some countries, women aren't allowed to wear a swimsuit.

I don't even think twice about wearing a swimsuit because it's always been a part of my lifestyle.
