I’m going to try my best to make sense and speak what I’m feeling but every time I do, I start tearing up and thanking Him

I grew up in the church, memorized verses, went to youth group, sang infront of the church, gone on missions, etc. I did the “right” things that come off as a Christian but those things don’t make you a Christian. It really doesn’t. It’s easy to say His word, post a verse or cross on your bio / captions, wear a cross necklace , and show up on Sunday mornings to church. It’s harder to soften your heart and truly listen to Him regardless if you like it or not.

In December , I said on here I wanted to speak more about my faith but tbh, I was luke warm. Why would I speak on something if I don’t live it in my everyday life? Literally a week later, a lot outside the phone happened to where I am here now in this mental space.

My heart use to be so hard and full of anger. It’s been awhile but I was starting to become known for “crashing out” and looking back now, it’s okay to speak up but it’s about presentation. Mine sucked. Regardless what I would speak on, it was easy to paint a picture to others that truly didn’t know me and that’s okay because we learned. We moved on. I have made my closure through Him.

I still sin. I’m not perfect. That’s the point. Jesus was. Not me. I still have my mental battles but they don’t weigh as heavy as they use to because I am able to give it to Him.

God answers prayers. He always does. It may be a “no”, “not yet” , or the fun one “yes but let’s do it My way” . I prayed for peace and especially for meet day . He delivered in such a way that I didn’t think was possible. He truly protected me from my own self sabotage and that, I am thankful.

Regardless if I won, loss, or even bombed out - Jesus defeated the grave and that is the ultimate win for humanity.

I am so thankful for the tears and the challenges in life because it brought me here.

Psalms 23:5

I was a young girl sitting in church when I heard the story of @timtebow and how him putting “John 3:16” on his face for a football game. That evening, 94 million people looked up that very verse on Google.
Over 50k viewed the live stream of @the_american_pro_ and I only pray that maybe just maybe I helped one person. Just one. I’m inspired by the dirt I walk on because it reminds me of every moment where I thought I hit rock bottom. I thought I was suppose to be there. Dead. I’m inspired by the sky no matter the forecast because it reminds me that I have a higher calling. I don’t have the answers but I can share some hope that it does get better. I know the rain doesn’t seem to stop at times and the world is screaming at your face - please know you are loved and have place.

OKAY IM GOING TO SAY ITTTTTTT
There is nothing absolutely wrong with investing into your business and elevating it. The problem is, you have people that haven’t been on platform long. You have people that won one competition and think they have elite coaching . What is that anyway? You can’t teach depth but want to pay for a business coach. What?
Everyone starts somewhere but you don’t need better systems on getting your name out there. You need to focus on being a better coach to where your people recommend you to other’s. Be present at competitions / community to get your name out there. You’d be surprised how well that goes. Focus on improving your own journey because at the end of the day in the fitness industry, you are the product regardless if you like that or not.
Invest in YOUR PEOPLE not GETTING MORE PEOPLE! When you do that - it will follow.

Be good to your people and they’ll be good to you.

K love you bye 💅

I have an easy fix. Just get stronger.
Factors can play a role but there’s a point where you don’t need to give a whole list of reasons.
Not my favorite bar
I didn’t have my favorite oatmeal flavor today
The clouds looked funny to me
My eyeliner was off
Idk. One day doesn’t determine the overall strength

My first month in college, I called my dad at 3am because I was so overwhelmed and upset sitting in the hospital while my roommate was getting a 🍇 kit done.
The university only moved him to another dorm and a restraining order. He was still on the track and field team with me.

My second semester, I came to a party and was handed a drink. I watched them pour it so I thought everything was okay. I come back to my friends and I had a completely different color drink than everyone else. I thought since I watch them pour it I was fine. Luckily, someone in the group was done early in the night and as we walked home, I was on another level of wasted. I woke up in a pile of my puke and found out they put NyQuil in the juice keg. I was lucky.

3 years later, my sorority had a party with a frat and I was pretty wasted so they offered for me to stay at the house for the night in a room where a brother wasn’t home for the weekend. Well, I woke up that morning to the brother that lived in that room touching me inappropriately while I was asleep(I guess he came back early idk and this is nothing on the frat itself. This brother did his own thing) He apologized and tried to buy me dinner. I declined and said I wanted to move forward. I think I did move forward but as I’ve gotten older (and my super power of not processing things until weeks months years later) I’ve realized it wasn’t okay.

I’ve seen people given prescribed medications at parties that make you go into a daze and unable to move so they could be taken advantage of. Sadly , organizations predicted it happening and well, it did.

Be kind to your mind today.

The feminine urge to put on a face and squat over 500lbs!!!!! What a power move!!! Got to see and handle @geebabbyyy23 today with @uspatexas !! I absolutely LOVE this girl! She’s crazy and aggressive like me so handling her was a BREEZE!! I can’t wait to be on platform with you in 6 weeks to put on some lashes and lift heavy circles!
Great time handling new faces, seeing old faces, and making connections through the community. I don’t care what platform you’re on or bar you use, I just like to see everyone win🫶🏻🙏🏼

Decent pulls this morning out at @tss_satx while seeing a friend at their weigh ins. No pressure in my lower abdomen region and figured out insurance so I’ll be getting things checked out soon! Onward!
