My Turnaround Story

People CAN change. DRASTICALLY.
This is a photo of me in the Amazon rainforest — turning SINKING INTO QUICKSAND as an opportunity to PLAY. I love the symbolism of that. What if we could see our dark times as permission from the Universe to throw away all the scripts and do the unexpected?
đŠ I used to be SO depressed and saw NO light at the end of the tunnel. “I’m just broken. I can’t have what other people have.”
đ Now even when I’m in what feels like the darkest hole, I know that my strength and resilience will carry me through until I find the lesson. I know I WILL re-invent myself, as many times as needed, and that makes life interesting. I have faith the Universe is waiting to bless this mess with grace.
â I used to believe that life was short and brutal, and nothing but darkness met us when we died.
đ Now I literally FEEL myself to be part of the eternally creative and ever evolving energy of the universe.
𤢠I used to overeat to stuff down my emotions. Every. Single. Day. The heaviness in my heart was completely manifested on my body.
âşď¸ Now I am so much better at checking in with my body and my emotions — before, during, and after meals to ask: “What do you REALLY want, honey?”
Please don’t give up hope that things CAN get better for you.
If you’re in a dark place right now, take off the pressure to perform. Let this be a time of exquisite self-care. A time when you get to know yourself even more deeply — who you are, NEWLY and SURPRISINGLY today. The version of you that is completely changed, deeper, and wiser than you’ve ever known yourself to be.
Go slowly. Take your time.
You won’t regret it.
