The model wrote about the unique way she made the decision to leave Victoria's Secret in her new memoir "Lessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life."

Gisele Bündchen revealed the reason behind her departure from Victoria's Secret in her new memoir "
She writes that she became "less at ease" with wearing "just a bikini or thong."
Bündchen placed two pieces of paper reading "yes" and "no" in an empty teacup, and ultimately pulled "no."

“I closed my eyes and set an intention: whatever piece of paper I chose would be for my highest and best self and be the right decision," she wrote. "No was the answer I unconsciously wanted to hear. It was also the answer my body wanted to hear and, I believe, had been trying to tell me for days."

Though the model is no longer a part of the annual event, her legacy continues to influence the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. Makeup artist Charlotte Tilbury told People that Bündchen is the inspiration behind the "sun-kissed" looks the models will be wearing at this year's show, so it looks like she'll be there in spirit.

The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show airs Sunday, December 2, at 10 p.m. ET on ABC. Find out more about how to watch the show here.
