Lizzie Velasquez, called “Ugliest Woman in the World,” inspires in new movie + her brave journey in 10 photos

The documentary, A Brave Heart, will showcase Velasquez's emotional journey towards finding self love and acceptance. "All I know is being knocked down and getting back up," she says in the trailer. The movie premieres on September 25. Check out more info here.

As a 17-year-old, Velasquez was bullied constantly. She suffers from neonatal progeroid syndrome, a super rare disorder. She decided to share her story in a video that generated over 4 million views. Online bullies named her "Ugliest Woman in the World," and her message against anti-bullying grew even stronger.

In 2013, Velasquez spoke at the TEDxAustinWomen conference and blew everyone away. "Now I want to end with asking you again, I want you leave here and ask yourself, what defines you? But remember brave starts here," she said.

Velasquez has published three inspiring books including, Lizzie Beautiful, Be Beautiful, Be You, and Choosing Happiness. Her books have been translated to Spanish and German.

The 26-year-old made sure to share her store with every media outlet that would listen. She has appeared on The Today Show, The View and CNN, just to name a few.

Velasquez can only see from one eye and had to figure out makeup tricks to complete her beauty routine. She has several videos on how to style your hair, along with a fast and simple makeup look. What more does a girl need?

Lizzie is bringing her anti-bullying campaign to Congress. The Texas native hopes a bill is passed that would force schools to set anti-bullying guidelines.

Lizzie's positive messages are taking over YouTube! She has over 350,000 subscribers. That's a lot of fans!

In honor of her new film, a beautiful mural was created to celebrate Velasquez. What a beautiful piece of art!

Lizzie is resilient and persistent. All of these triumphs are only the beginning for her. "I'm not going to go away until they listen," she says in her film's trailer.
