Every other month I feel like retiring. Trying to break through the algorithm. Trying to convince friends to support. Trying to keep myself creative enough to complete a project while trying to live a whirlwind life.
.
My take away from that is I never stop TRYING. I already know I have Nothing to prove but I keep trying to make sure my art reaches You.
However you envision your life; that’s what you TRY for.

I had the honor to visit @cure4thekids and sing to a few patients receiving their treatment. With some help from everyone, we were able to harmonize on the spot and share some smiles ❤️

Top secret mission almost complete: give @cure4thekids a follow, support their mission to provide high-quality, specialized medical treatment, including cancer and rare disease care to children in Nevada, regardless of their family’s ability to pay. (HUGE thank you to @kylekhou !)

just wanted to give a huge thank you to my gymnastics family for shaping me into the person and athlete I am today. browns gymnastics has been a part of my life since i was 4 years old, and it will always hold such a special place in my heart. this sport gave me a foundation that goes far beyond the gym, and it’s something i will carry with me as i work to hopefully continue my journey on a different path at the collegiate level.

my journey was far from average and definitely not easy. there were so many moments that tested me mentally and physically, and while i didn’t finish my career the way i once imagined, it doesn’t take away from how much this sport means to me. if anything, it’s made me even more grateful for everything it’s given me.

gymnastics taught me resilience, discipline, and how to keep going even when things felt impossible. it helped me grow into someone stronger, more confident, and ready for whatever comes next.

to every coach that was a part of my journey, i am forever grateful for you. you each saw something different in me and taught me lessons that i will carry into the next parts of my life.

neli, you stuck with me from the very first time i met you at 5 years old and have believed in me every single day since then even when i didn’t believe in myself, and i will always be thankful for the support and love you gave me. what we have goes beyond athlete and coach, it’s truly family. you definitely hold the most special place in my heart as a gymnastics coach and there is no way i will ever be able to repay you for anything you’ve done for me.

and kyle, thank you for everything, letting me come back after i quit and end my time in the gym on such a high note. the growth we had and the friendship we built means so much to me, and i’ll always remember the laughs and how hard you pushed me to be great.

to every single girl i’ve had the opportunity to be on a team with in the last 14 years, i love each and everyone of you.

browns will always be my home. i’m forever thankful for the memories, the lessons, and the people who made this journey so special. a part of me will always belong here❤️

This number behind me on the wall…took me to Hollywood on @americanidol when I was 15.
Now it hangs in my studio as a reminder that God never wastes a dream He planted in your heart.🖤

So grateful for the journey and every blessing along the way.✨
New music coming soon… and we start filming this weekend. I can’t wait. 🎬🫶🏼
