On why she was disappointed in herself
“I had to deal with feelings of disappointment and feeling like a failure. And that sounds so crazy because how can I even look at this beautiful child and feel like I failed? I felt like my body failed me and I wasn’t prepared for that. I wasn’t prepared to feel that way after having a child. And it was really really difficult and I cried, I’m still crying about it because it’s still taking me time to process who I am now and who I’m becoming.”
On why she felt the need to share her story
“Be brave in all moments. Especially the difficult ones. In my latest YouTube video ‘It’s Time to Tell The Truth,’ I mustered up the courage to share my birth story and my feelings of being a woman in motherhood. I feel like there is not enough conversation taking place when it comes to the journey of our emotional and physical well being as women. And the media doesn’t support the reality of what is actually happening, only focusing on the superficial things like relationship gossip and “snap back”. I hope this video empowers all who watch to embrace your truth and your own personal journey. Comparison is the thief of joy.”
