finding yourself isn’t easy. but it’s the best work you’ll ever do.


once upon a time I couldn’t get my picture taken without holding my breath, squeezing, holding, fearing — I was so scared of what the phone camera would catch. what the photo would reveal.


what if it proves I’m not perfect? what if it reveals all the parts of myself I work so hard to hide? what if this photo makes me hate myself even more?


oooooooooo was that a dark time. how unfun. how uninspiring.


before I found holistic health and the power of loving yourself I was caught in the toxic cycle of self hate. of obsessiveness. I cared so much about the wrong things. I fell victim to every fad diet and detox that made me count and measure and weigh and obsess even more.


the good news? if you can be so passionate about hating yourself imagine how passionate you can be when you learn to love yourself?


loving & accepting who you are — how fun! how inspiring! how magical ✨


this is the life I choose to live. I am the main character. I call the shots. I paint the picture. I decide the perspective, the conversation, the vibration.


I choose love. I choose nourishment. I choose joy. &&& those choices — they bring me into myself — my most authentic, most vibrant self 🕊


& if someone who spent her first 24 years of life consumed in darkness, obsessiveness & filled with hate can find the courage to choose again, to choose action & growth over complacency and pain?


anything is possible.

how groovy ✌🏼
