For a day in your courts is better than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of wickedness.

Jesus is truly better than anything else and I’m so glad I got to learn that while being surrounded by the most loving people. Thank you Orlando Project, I miss you already ♡

Incredible blessed to have had the opportunity to spend the summer with brothers and sisters in Christ, growing together in our faith.

I truly don’t have the words to describe what God did in my life this summer. He reminded me that He is better than anything this world could ever offer. I’m so thankful for the friendships, the memories, the growth, and every moment that brought me closer to Him. This summer changed my life, and I’ll always be grateful for it. 💕💕 Psalm 84:10

I've been swimming for as long as I can remember. This sport has been such a defining part of my life. It taught me discipline, consistency, resilience, love, and how to keep going even when I felt completely exhausted. I'm genuinely grateful for every experience, every lesson, every award, and every moment that shaped me into who I am today.
But recently, my relationship with swimming started to feel different. Because of my OCD & anxiety, the sport slowly became something that felt overwhelming instead of fulfilling. I noticed I was more upset with my performances than I was ever proud or happy with them, even when I was doing well. The pressure I placed on myself never really stopped, and over time it started affecting both my mental and physical health in ways I couldn't ignore anymore.
One thing I wish more people talked about is how normalized it is for athletes to suffer silently. So many athletes are praised for pushing through burnout, anxiety, exhaustion, or mental health struggles as if that's what strength is supposed to look like. But I'm learning that real strength is also knowing when to step back, ask for help, and protect yourself before you completely lose who you are outside of your sport.
Therapy has genuinely become one of my biggest supports through all of this. It's helped me understand myself better, separate my worth from my performances, and realize that taking care of your mind is just as important as taking care of your body. I’ve also been incredibly lucky to build meaningful friendships through swimming that I’ll always be thankful for. Those connections mean more to me than I can put in the words. For now, I am transferring back home for financial and mental health reasons, and I am stepping away from competitive swimming to reset, and hopefully find my love for the sport again in a healthier way. I’ll still be in the water, just without the pressure that once came with it. To any athlete who feels stuck in this cycle: you are not alone. You are so much more than your times, your results, or your sport. Your mental health matters too. 🤍 #mentalhealthawarenessmonth
