Creative Alchemy and Personal Renewal
Shakira described the process of creating her album as transformative, stating, 'Making this body of work has been an alchemical process. While writing each song I was rebuilding myself.'
She emphasised how her emotional journey during the album production allowed her tears to turn into 'diamonds' and her vulnerability to morph into 'strength'. This profound self-discovery and expressive evolution signify a significant milestone in Shakira's artistic career.
