This weekend in PA was absolutely incredible๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

Reached lots of amazing milestones in the biz ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿผ

Made new connections & awesome people ๐Ÿ‘ซ

Enjoyed a bomb. com ๐Ÿ’ฃ celebration Thai dinner with my favorite human, Katelyn ๐Ÿ

Unfortunately, what majorly bummed me out this week was all the young women I talked to that have been struggling๐Ÿ˜ฉ

With eating disorders ๐Ÿ•

Low๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿผ confidence

Unworthiness in their bodies

Shame

Sadness

and it literally broke ๐Ÿ’” my GD Heart

Guys

I've def been there

having low confidence in my body ๐Ÿ™…๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ

legitimately killing myself at the gym in college cause I ate too many cookies ๐Ÿช

feeling no โŒ sense of worth, self-value

refusing to eat certain things with fear it would damage my body ๐Ÿ”๐ŸŸ

Bingeing on food๐Ÿซ because I was so hungry from trying not to eat (thinking it would fill some void)

so embarrassed of where I let myself go (I would look in the mirror and point out how I hated my legs and calves... and who knows what else)

Because of a few events ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ that came into my life and an EF TON of work ๐Ÿ”จ and investment into myself ๐Ÿ’ฐ

Ive been able to...

be the healthiest I have ever been - P.S. I am 5โ€™5โ€ and 130lbs now and think #MyBodsDope โšก๏ธ

point out all the things I love about me (like no shit ๐Ÿ’ฉ I love my bod) not in a vain way

I eat ๐Ÿ” what I want because I honor my body

I do a light workout maybe. sometimes. if I feel like it... But its rare.

I KNOW I am worthy of all things โœจcause I am dope city ๐ŸŒƒ Boston (which can scare some peeps off- not gonna lie- but that's cool)

And I AM truly ๐Ÿ˜Š happy- not just IG ๐ŸŽฅ fake filter happy)

I just want you to know ๐Ÿ’ญ (if you're struggling in any shape or from)

That you're not the only one โ˜๐Ÿป and you can always reach out to me ๐Ÿ’“

I used to think that sharing the things I was experiencing would make me look weak or unworthy๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ

I believe it is true therapy- and helps more people than I probably even realize ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

Asking for someone to listen ๐Ÿ‘‚๐Ÿป to your struggles is not weak or annoying- its encouraged (by me at least)

So come at me, give me your best shot, Iโ€™ve heard and been through the ringer. No judgement zone ๐Ÿ’ฏ with me. Slide in those DMโ€™s - I gotchu girl๐Ÿ’›
