Aranjuez, 1962.

Miriam Díaz Aroca

, the jumping actress and presenter of television programs such as 'Cajón de sastre' is now a woman in charge of her destiny who returns to acting with the play 'The message', at the Lara Theater in Madrid until this Sunday.

How would you define your character?

A fresh, very authentic Lucia, with a lot of irony, with a little bit of innocence and with personality. Specifically, with a personality activated by a possible danger in his relationship with his daughters. That ends up empowering her and makes her daughters see that their mother is a woman. Because many times the daughters do not see it. We see mom and dad, but we never see that they are men and women. The tour is super cool.


Which conflict attracts you the most about the work?

When life tells you that it gives you a million euros, choose if you are able to bring your dirty laundry to light. It is poison money. And that takes its toll.


What do you think this show contributes at the moment?

Culture is life and people want to live. You want to get out of the house and take a look at what gives you life. Get into a room where it is not dangerous and is protected. All this is removing the 'stopper' and the 'foot' on the head of the people, who have been very damaged by everything that has happened. If you don't mind getting into the subway or on a plane, that you don't have space, in a theater or in a cinema, that they are much more careful, what are you going to tell me.


How did you get out of the pandemic?

It has made me personally much more awake, much more coherent, it has positioned me in what reality I want to live and what it is that I am going to promote. If at this moment we do not take the opportunity to be authentic and have the life we ​​want, regardless of the circumstances ... uf, what a shame not to take advantage of this seizure to cleanse your life of what you do not want. Before the showcase was held. But now the lake's mud has moved and all the shit has come up, which is the only way to clean up.


What do you think the approach should be from now on?

This has given us a chance to remove all the shitty patches from our lives. We must join shoulder to shoulder to contribute to creating a more beautiful, more transparent, more authentic, more collaborative, closer society, without the demand of consumption ... These are times of conscious daring, responsible courage, and betting on oneself .


Some say that new technologies boycott us, rather than help us.

It's a lie, it's our management, no matter how shit you have here [points to mobile]. All drugs have to be dosed and measured. Even the worst drug has its good side.


How was he breeding?

I was born a seeker. I was a girl who did not fit, the rare girl. And that hurt me a lot. What about a little girl when she wants to fit in with what people expect of her? That she is not herself. What my 15-year-old friends liked bored me sovereignly. My inner world was a very silent world, very big. I was born with that load of natural information and then time has proven me right: that you are doing well around here, that what you thought when you were little was not crazy, and so on. I have been searching in a self-taught way, not as a follower of anyone, nor have I done long distance courses. I have always been itching from one place to another.


At what point would you say that everything changed?

I came from the Hollywood Oscars [with 'Belle Époque']. And the idea was: you'll see, now up. Well no: it went down. But not bad, but amount of work. And I didn't understand it. At that moment I didn't understand anything, that's when I realized that I had a character and that I had to disassemble it. That was a very great act of bravery, because it consists of not throwing balls out without holding anyone responsible. At the same time, I am a mother and a housekeeper and I have to fill the refrigerator and pay the bills.


How did this change take place?

I understood how important silence, solitude and disconnecting a lot from noise were for me. I love my profession, but I don't 'feed' the rest of the profession. I'm going to a premiere and I'm going home. I'm not staying for the party. I can't handle that noise. It doesn't feed me. I began to be more and more authentic, really with a conscience and with a very rich spiritual world, which I had always had, but which I now exposed. I have also been very interested in doing good to others based on my life experience, because during this time I have managed to detect my emotions that have neutralized me and made me unhappy.

What else is he up to?

Now I am a mentor and help people change their lives. When you realize that your life is empty because you have forgotten to fill yourself, you have filled yourself with falsehoods to please others, to seek admiration or recognition ... it is time to dismantle the character that we have ourselves built to build who you really are. Maybe the demands of the outside make you do things that don't make you happy. It is a wonderful moment. Less talking and more doing, less talking and more doing.


For instance?

Now I am doing a master's degree in strategic intervener. Interveners enter a person's life and in two and a half hours we change that person with very sophisticated tools to deal with emotion, change it, and dismantle your limiting beliefs. I offer my clients that possibility. It is fabulous to see how women and men with many wounds put themselves at your service with absolute confidence and I manage to transform them.


Many Spaniards woke up to sexuality with you.

I have never known that he was a sexual icon. I had no idea. I played, I put on my mesh, my skates and I had a pipe. And I created an image in my image and likeness, as I liked. And yes, the kids from 'school' came and immediately came over to pinch my ass. But I was not aware of that.


Really?

I believe that by my nature, with a strong character and such a very spontaneous personality, I could fascinate, but they were more afraid to approach.


Have you ever suffered an episode of bullying or experienced some uncomfortable misunderstanding?

No. If it is that I see that I have neither trap nor cardboard and that it is or yes or no.


What is age?

Age is not a bloody number, it is your attitude, your desire to eat life every day, to know that you have every opportunity to do whatever you want. In front of the speech of "hangs this on me", there is this other. I am a wonderful fifty-year-old. I am better than ever, captain of my ship and owner of my emotions. Now I know how to say no, I know how to say yes and choose who I want to be in my life and who not. I'll be wrong, but in another way. Without 'complaining', without good humor and without victimhood. I can't handle those 'isms'. That your circle of friends is reduced? Thanks god. That your family stops talking to you? That's great!


Interesting reflections.

I am a girl who constantly marvels every day. Look at my dressing room [lavishly decorated with garlands and other decorations] I could have left it as it was, but life is more. And I love that others are happy with what I do.


You, who became known on television, what do you think today?

All platforms that have a media impact are responsible for taking care of their content to make a population better people. But the cash register still reigns. And what things attract money? Violence, sex ...


And the media in general?

Now there is less freedom of the press than before.

It does not matter that the supply of media has multiplied, that you do not have the freedom to talk about anything without being cut off, 'castren' or removed from somewhere.

It is a shame, but it is a time of transition and the media reflects a lot what is happening with humanity.

It's like the famous obsession to get out of the 'matrix'.

You don't have to go out, you have to change it, blow it up from within.
