Growing up in Brazil, Gisele wanted to become a volleyball player or a vet. But at the age of 14, fate intervened in in the form of a modelling scout. Four years later, Gisele’s appearance in Alexander McQueen’s London runway show launched her spectacular career as a fashion model. Since then, Gisele has appeared in almost 400 ad campaigns and on over 1200 magazine covers. But until now, few people have gotten to know the real Gisele. In Lessons, she reveals for the first time who she really is and what she’s learned over the past 37 years to help her live a meaningful life.
