Gisele Bündchen has never ceased to amaze the world, on or off the ramp. While her runway presence was a thing to behold, her everyday activities made her all the more beloved. A strong advocate for issues she’s passionate about, Bündchen has always shown quiet strength.
The best part of the model’s resilience and growth has been the fact that she has never been a gatekeeper of the practices that helped her. Her memoir, ‘Lessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life’ is an accumulation of anecdotes and words of wisdom learned through her experience. While sharing one important aspect that guides her, in hindsight, Bündchen may have made a huge revelation concerning her marriage.

Gisele Bündchen’s holistic approach to life is admirable. Slow living despite the stress of a career in the fashion industry is not an easy path. But the model has seemingly incorporated a lot of practices that have helped her move forward.

Speaking of an ‘inner voice’ that guides her decisions, Bündchen’s memoir emphasizes the trait of being sensitive to the voice’s direction. She said, “No, your inner voice is the one that more than any other gives you a kind of knowing. I admit that sometimes it seems confusing because a lot of voices can be talking at the same time.” The model explains that being quiet and still paying attention to what your body is saying is the way to track your inner voice.
The former Victoria’s Secret Angel also made a note of how she deciphers her true inner voice. She said, “I follow the inner voice that fills me with peace, lets me sleep well, and makes me feel good about myself the next morning. If the decisions I make are based on love, and the actions I take reflect that love, then I’m being true to my inner voice. But there have been plenty of times when I’ve ignored that voice and paid the consequences, small and large.”
While her inner voice was influential in guiding her steps in the past, what of the model’s recent decisions? After 13 years of marriage, Bündchen split from her now ex-husband, Tom Brady. Was this a decision that was prompted by her inner voice?
Bündchen and Brady remain tethered together despite all the chaos
After more than a decade of building a life together, Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen went through a public divorce. Given their visibility, speculation abounded for months. Navigating a divorce is never easy, but Brady and Bündchen continue to stay on cordial terms because of their children, Benjamin and Vivian.

Rumors indicated that Bündchen was not happy with Brady’s return to the game after his first retirement. That may have been the start of the slippery slope. After finalizing their divorce last October, the duo has gone their separate ways. With Brady’s second retirement, he’s been more visibly present at home with his children. Bündchen’s inner voice may have prompted her to consider a different future. Or, her relationship had finally run its course. Regardless, she continues to be tethered to Brady in raising their beloved children.
