1. She Refuses to Diet

Gina maintains that dieting can have a negative impact on your life. "It's important to celebrate my successes with the people around me. Eating, drinking, and toasting are big parts of my family gatherings," she told Shape. "I think body positivity is important because it frees up a lot of worrying and a lot of stress we spend on it daily. Instead, put all that time and energy into doing the things you want to do and making your dreams come true."

2. She Altered Her Life When Diagnosed with an Autoimmune Condition

Rodriguez Hashimoto’s disease, an autoimmune condition that impacts the thyroid and can lead to an underactive thyroid. When first diagnosed, Gina revealed to Self that it felt like “the curse of a lifetime,” especially due to the potential weight gain implications. “To the core of my being, I know what it’s like to feel like there is no way I can win this, so where do I even begin,” she said. “[Hashimoto’s] affects so many aspects of your life. I’ve had it for so many years…that rebellion of not taking care of myself can’t exist anymore.”

3. She Boxes and Does Muay Thai

Gina loves fighting forms of fitness, including boxing and Muay Thai. “No pain, no Muay Thai. I came here to transform. I came here to face my demons and bad habits. I went full force into training and it wasn't comfortable or easy but discipline never is and life never is. Everyday I want to grow stronger, I may fail but I will try. Everyday I want to grow wiser, I may fail but I will try. Life knocks you down and it can hurt but that has never stopped me before and so I repeat no pain, no Muay Thai,” she captioned this Instagram post.

4. Her Diet Is Healthy

Due to her health condition, Gina has to pay extra attention to what she puts in her body. "Fatigue is already an issue with Hashimoto's, and some scenes can really take a lot out of you," she told Shape. "That's a by-product of the job, so I keep my energy up by being conscientious about the food I put in my body-eating more fiber and vegetable protein."

5. She Cheats

While not super restrictive, she maintains balance. "I eat healthily and work out, so I don't worry about having a red velvet cupcake or slice of pizza,” she told Shape. “I can’t say I’m on point, always on it, because, man, I’m flawed,” she added to Self. “I want the burger and the ice cream and the red velvet cupcakes. I want the croissant with my coffee, even though gluten doesn’t do me justice.”

6. She Battled Anxiety

“I’ve just recently started getting really debilitating panic attacks and anxiety,” Gina told Self, which she attributes to “balancing reality with fiction, and reality with the bullshit of social media, the kind of psychological change that’s happening in our climate, period.” However, she realized she was taking too much thyroid medication. Once she lowered her dosage, the anxiety subsided.

7. She Recently Got Into Mountain Climbing

Gina recently started mountain climbing, training at an indoor climbing wall. “New hobby. New fears to push thru,” she wrote in this Instagram post of herself climbing a wall. Or try a vertical climber. "The machine is 7-feet tall and puts users at a 75 degree angle in a climbing position. But don’t be intimidated! Gym goers put their feet in the straps and push up on the handle bar at the same time they push down with their leg. Think: opposite hand, opposite foot. When you push up with your right hand, your left leg is also moving upwards," says the Cleveland Clinic.

Rodríguez gave an interview to Nightmarish Conjurings to promote her movie Centigrade. She says that she has to decompress after shooting days. “It was very very difficult. It’s not like you can turn it off, turn off the characters. You have to go home and continue the diet. What I would do was watch reality TV shows to try to get out of my head because I was so frightened and so scared of my job that I would just try not to think about anything. So, that’s what I would do. It was hard. You had to have a partner, of someone you’d trust to be able to do that.”

2. She Wants Inclusivity

Rodríguez wants to increase the amount of diversity in the movie and TV industry. “Well, I have got to say being a Latino woman, a Latinx woman, it’s very difficult for me to even land a lead role in a movie,” she tells Nightmarish Conjurings. “Let alone being considered a Naomi so, this to me was a feat because I was able to be a lead of a movie. But also, I wanted and I feel like I deserved the opportunity. And I hope that changes. I do still feel it’s not there. Hollywood is not there yet. They have to be more inclusive and they have to consider us as being a part of the American population. I should have no problems in getting a Naomi role, but I did. It was a challenge. It is a challenge for me to get there. So, I pray that it changes. That there [are] more opportunities for someone like me and the door is completely open and it is all about just your talent. Not because you are filling a quota.”

3. She Wants To Be Challenged

Rodríguez opened up about her ideal qualities in a man to Muscle and Fitness. She says that she wants to be challenged in life. “I don’t like it when a guy lets me win. I think that’s stupid and lame. I like a guy who gives me a challenge, because if I’m going to win I’m going to beat you when you’re giving it your all. Especially in video games.”

4. She Loves Green Juice

Rodríguez makes sure to eat healthy. One thing she likes to do is drink green juice. She shared this photo on Instagram of herself enjoying a green smoothie. Rodríguez captioned the post, “Wash your face. Drink your greens. Do some gua sha. Block the haters. Stay hydrated Mami.”

5. She Takes Care Of Her Skin

Rodríguez is all about skincare. She wrote this essay for POPSugar about the importance of skincare. “It's so important to take the time to treat your skin. We always talk about that red carpet glow — how do actresses do it? It's really about loving the skin we are in, but…Are we loving it like we're supposed to? Taking a few minutes to pamper your skin might seem like the last thing you want to add to your already busy to-do list, and it really does take time, but your skin deserves it!”

Sánchez opened up about her healthy habits in an interview with HOLA! Magazine. “I’ve never been a drinker or a smoker. I don’t know for sure if this is the reason why I look younger. Doctors claim that leading a healthy life consisting of good habits like eating healthy and getting enough rest is fundamental to good health. I’ve never gone to bed with my makeup on, but I’m not a big fan of beauty products and I’ve never had plastic surgery. I practice a bit of discipline and I’m good to myself.”

2. She Wants To Share Her Culture’s Stories

Sánchez tells The A.V. Club that she wants to give opportunities to other Hispanic and Latino actors and workers in the film and TV industry. “I have an immense passion to produce and to direct, especially Latino content. I take it as a responsibility. I’ve been so lucky that it’s time to pay it forward, [especially] if I can do it in Puerto Rico and employ Puerto Ricans. This country is so unique in terms of our history. It’s a Commonwealth with an ever-evolving relationship with the States. Puerto Ricans are very divided when it comes to our political status. And as a place to shoot, it’s paradise. We have a little bit of everything. We have rainforests! So in terms of production value and history, we have so much to offer. So with HSI: Puerto Rico, there’s so many cop procedural franchises that do so well, [so] how is it possible that there’s not one here? That was the whole idea behind it.”

3. She Stays True To Herself

Sánchez opened up to HOLA! Magazine about how she approaches her career. She says that she wants to be honest and true to herself. “I’ve never had terrible problems on a personal or professional level, and I’ve always made an effort to keep my career intact,” Sánchez explained. “I had a very normal upbringing, from good and humble people in Puerto Rico. My mother taught me to be of strong character, but never mischievous. I’ve always had a good head on my shoulders and made sure my career was nice and clean so it can serve as an inspiration to others. I dislike people who have successful careers based on gossip and scandals.”

4. She’s Grateful

Sánchez tells HOLA! Magazine that she’s extremely grateful for her career. “I can’t complain. That would be ungrateful of me. I thought that it would be easier than it actually was. I’ve lived through so much happiness but also lots of tears. But it’s like anything in life, if I were to retire tomorrow and write a book about my life, it would be 90% gratitude. Gratitude towards God, life, my angels…Because I’ve worked consistently for 25 years.”

5. She Dances

Sánchez shared some of her favorite exercises to HOLA! Magazine. She says that she likes to practice ballet to keep herself in shape. “I exercise a lot. I’ve been dancing ballet since I was four, and have been practicing it constantly throughout the years. It’s very important for me to keep moving and stay active.”

"Today is #InternationalWomensDay, a day where we as women are celebrated," she captioned one clip. "We celebrate the power that being a woman comes with. The strength, the perseverance. We are reminded to be proud of our sexuality, to be proud of our bodies, and to challenge ourselves every day to love ourselves more and more."

"Some days confidence comes easier, sometimes it’s a challenge," she added, "but if we all make a commitment to lift each other up, it will come more often."

2. She Now Loves Herself

"I struggled with an eating disorder when I was 14 and I'm so lucky that I came out of the other side of it," she said. "I learned so many amazing things from it that I honestly wouldn't take back." "I've never loved myself as much as I do now, which is so important. I think it's the most important quality any woman can have," she continued. "It's just self-love, self-respect, self-confidence and body positivity."

3. Her Mom is a Big Inspiration

Of mom Lisa Rinna, Hamlin says: "She taught me how to love myself, how to unapologetically be myself, how to make fun of myself, and self-deprecate myself in amazing ways that actually ended up helping me with my confidence, and not take myself too seriously," she explained. "I think that's a really big key to life."

4. She’s Into Yoga Gear

Hamlin has sported the Alo clothing, a yoga brand. “Practicing slow, controlled breathing stimulates the body's vagus nerve, which takes information about the current state of relaxation and relays it to the rest of the body, including the brain. One area affected when the vagal nerve is stimulated is the parasympathic nervous system, which controls the body's rest and digestion functions. The mindful breathing practiced in yoga increases the activity of the parasympathic nervous system. As a result, yoga lowers the heart rate, improves digestion and quality of sleep, and strengthens the immune system. Another benefit is an improved stress level,” says the Mayo Clinic.

5. She Hits the Gym

Hamlin is frequently photographed leaving a gym. “The Department of Health and Human Services recommends that healthy adults include aerobic activity and strength training in their fitness plans, specifically,” says the Mayo Clinic:

• At least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity a week, or an equivalent combination of moderate and vigorous aerobic activity
• Strength training exercises of all the major muscle groups at least twice a week.”

In it, Serhant says that the process helped her and her husband work out their issues. “We bonded more than ever before. I finally stopped expecting him to be a superhero with the ability to read my mind and started to understand him more. I respected him for stepping up and really being there. In many ways, I'm grateful we got the time to rebuild our relationship with an even stronger foundation, before we welcomed our daughter.”
