In this episode, I talk about the struggle with loving myself not in a poetic way, but in the quiet, heavy, everyday way. I open up about how trauma and mental illness can make self-love feel almost impossible, and how those experiences shape the way we see ourselves.

This is for anyone who feels disconnected from themselves, tired of trying to “just think positive,” and is looking for something real. Figuring out the things that work for me in my road to loving myself has been differcult and messy but I am getting there. I share all the things that can help you.

I also want to mention that I didn’t get here by myself. The Spirit of Christ has helped me in ways I can’t fully comprehend, and I’m deeply grateful. I also have an amazing best friend who has been a constant source of support and love.

*Full disclosure- I am NOT or WANT to be defined by my mental health or trauma. I just want to share my stories and experiences to help you and let you know you are not alone. You are not your diagnosis or trauma. Do not let anyone ever tell you otherwise.

You are strong and resilient!!!!!! Keep going.

Thank you Guys, See you next week
