Stage photos are in..💚✨

What I got out of competing/body building:

It is a selfish sport. Meaning - this endeavor is YOU and only you. It was tough to balance work, school, a social life AND training for a show. As a 21 year old this was TOUGH. Not being able to go out, sacrifice hangouts, vacations etc.
But because of this sport, I’m a completely different AND better person and I know it and learned SO much about myself:

- 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞. Never did I think I had THAT much discipline: training everyday at 7 AM, cardio 2-3x a day at one point, eating the same meals and not cheating.
-𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞. Never did I think I’d get up on stage in a bikini. However, after weeks of prep- you gain a certain confidence. You struggle, prep is NOT easy. Mentally, physically and emotionally you’re challenged. But once show day arrives- the confidence was there because you’re proud that you made it THIS far. No matter how I was placing, I worked SO hard for those 5 minutes on stage- standing proud and confident was my full intention.
- All the supportive people you meet through this journey is truly overjoying 🥰 and I’m grateful everyday.
Thank you for all the love and support. Couldn’t have asked for a better first experience ❤️
But just wait until next season- you haven’t seen the last of me. 😉
My mantra: NEVER Settle.

I used to dream of this moment… and now I get to call it mine 🥹
.
Friday marked a huge milestone — getting my white coat and officially finishing didactics!
.
Thank you to my incredible support system — I truly couldn’t have made it here without my family and friends.

I’ve studied a lot, I’ve learned a lot, laughed, cried, and stressed… and stressed… and stressed some more — but I never gave up.
