Canaviri was a trendsetter. Before she went on the air, television in Bolivia was dominated by those of European ancestry. Proud of her heritage, Canaviri wanted her program to depict who she really was.

In 2006, Canaviri moved her show to Bolivia TV. where she continued to present lively conversation and recipes.

In 1999, Canaviri met the Bolivian screenwriter Guillermo Aguirre, who thought that she could work in television. He helped her secure work as a presenter on a television program, "La Cancha", which introduced products to consumers. After that show ended, she worked as a host on two short-lived programs, "Sábado Estelar" and "Fiebre de Sábado con la Canasta de La Justa". Because she could not find additional television work and she liked working in the medium, she wrote a program called "La Wislla de La Justa" and began pitching it to various independent producers. Radio Televisión Popular [es] (RTP Bolivia), agreed to produce the show in 2002. Canaviri's program centered on food, but with Canaviri discussing political and social issues, as well as presenting cultural traditions. Within three months the program had become a hit and she began to think of producing it independently. After ten months, she went to work at the PAT Network [es] and the program was renamed "La Justa", where she remained for the next three years.
