Long and super vulnerable post ahead!⬇️

September is Suicide Prevention Month, and I believe in not only raising awareness about it, but also in the conversation about what suicide prevention actually looks like.
•
It’s been almost 4 years since losing my dad to it. My journey with this kind of grief, coupled with the trauma around other life events, health issues and neurodivergence diagnoses… has made for a very difficult last few years. It’s something that I don’t talk a lot about, but my reality has been that I have spent a lot of the last 4 years just trying to make it one day at a time. That’s a long time to exist in survival mode, and the effect it has had on my mind and body is something I can’t “power through” anymore.
•
This is what suicide prevention looks like. It looks like setting aside pride, being vulnerable, and asking for help. And this is me asking for that help. I’m grateful for the tools I’ve accumulated to this point, but certain supports can only help so much for certain people.
•
This is a support that I believe will be life changing for me. However! Unfortunately for me, training a service dog is incredibly intensive and expensive. There’s more details in the GoFundMe link in my bio and I’m so incredibly grateful for all of the different supports I have and will experience through my community ♥️

Thanks for being here ♥️♥️♥️

Officially graduated CORE on Thursday 🩵
It’s been such an amazing journey, and I’m so excited to move onto the clinic floor and start the next phase of school!

Huge shoutout to Bailey, I truly couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you for being the kind of teacher who made me feel safe, heard, and seen (even when I asked the dumbest stuff 😅). You made such a difference, and I’m so thankful for you 🤍

I’ve also met such an incredible group of girls who’ve made these past weeks unforgettable. Every single day has been filled with so much laughter, support, and growth along the way 💕

And I can’t wait to have Eleanor as one of my new teachers! Ready to keep learning, growing, and glowing in this next chapter ✨

Graduating from Paul Mitchell The School Springfield still doesn’t feel real. This program challenged me, pushed me, and gave me some of the best people I could’ve asked for. I’m beyond grateful for the friendships, mentors, and memories made along the way. Excited to finally step into the esthetics world I’ve dreamed about and ready to get started, knowing the learning and growth never really stop 💚✨
