Ben kimim?

Hi, I’m Gareth 👊🏼 I am from beautiful South Africa. Yes the place with lots of wildlife. And yes I totally have a pet lion jokes, just a cat. I’m your typical old school gentleman type, the one they say that does not exist anymore right?! Hey Hello. I’m also a very diligent, hardworking, loyal, kind and a empathetic person. Now focusing on the empathetic part. My whole life I have been judged as being too soft. People would mock me and make me often feel like I was not man enough because I have a quality not often associated with the stigma of being a ‘Man”. I use to think that was a weakness trait to have but definitely a strength I’ve been given in life being empathetic. I feel my emotions and of those around me. I am a deep passionate person. Lastly I would say what you need to know about me is I’m just a lover of life. I live by the motto: ‘Life Stands for Life It Fully Everyday.’ I always inspire not only to motivate myself but others to enjoy and embrace each new day we are given in life, as it is truly a gift to be cherished.


Fashion Hero TV Yarışması hakkında ne düşünüyorum?

I think the Fashion Hero TV Series is a great show that is reminding the world beautiful is not just the typical magazine cover muscular or super skinny or tall person but everyday regular people like you and me. It’s reminding the world that even in the word beaUtiful , there’s a U. Yes you read that right. You are beautiful as you are! Society has made us all doubt ourselves and made us feel like we don’t matter as we don’t fit those standards no matter what we do right. I think we need this series to remind the world that beauty is also in diversity as well. This is the other thing that I love about the fashion hero is that the representation is global. Finally all people from all different cultures, ages, countries and walks of life are being considered. I am a huge fan of the fashion hero movement and I hope to be a proud ambassador for the fashion hero one day. #TeamFashionHero


Bu nesil için neden iyi bir rol model olabilirim ve Fashion Hero'nun yeni yüzü olarak insanlara nasıl ilham verebilirim?

I think I would be a great role model because I have gone through some life challenges like bad bullying and being diagnosed with a learning disability. I was told I was going to be a failure in life and that I won’t finish school and that’s the way it will be. I didn’t let this stop me from achieving my dreams of becoming an academic. Yes it was a long journey I went for therapy, I did extra lessons and worked late hours but guess what I managed to finish high school and went further to obtain a honors business degree. My most proudest achievement to date is I was awarded not just a degree but the top student of my business degree class and yes with a learning disability can you believe it? So I want to remind the world that yes in life we are faced with horrible things or circumstances that do limit us. But we need to look at these things as just obstacles that yes can temporarily block us but they can’t stop us. We need to look at them in fact as our reminders to push harder and do what’s seems impossible but is actually possible. We just have to put our heart and mind to it. We can do anything. To further prove this: My favourite quote by Audrey Hepburn says: “Even the world impossible says (IM)Possible!” So I want to share my personal story as well as inspire others to come forward and share theres because in doing so we can all feel connected, learn from each other’s experiences and in turn be stronger together. Together, we can help put the i back in conf(I)dence and stop society form making us believe we don’t matter because in fact we all do. Let’s take back our powers and show the world that the real heroes are us. You and me!
