Im proud of myself, my heart, and my strength. growing up in the light with a million eyes on you just isnt normal. Ive lost friends along the way and Ive lost myself too sometimes. my first tattoo was sanity to remind myself everyday to keep it. Ive struggled with anxiety my whole young adult life and after my baby i dealt with all the internal ups and downs. I felt like i had to find myself completely again. I keep a whole lot to myself but just wanted to share and let you know Im human. my life is not perfect and what you see here on social media is just the surface. be gentle with yourself, move on, and let go. we are all capable of great things, worthy of love, and allowed to express ourselves. do more of what makes you happy and be unapologetic. now is your season we all have a magnificent destiny.
