[Music] The very same people that were supposed to help her through this crisis were the very same people that she could not trust. Growing up, we never really talked about mental health in my family. In fact, looking back at it now, it almost feels like it was completely avoided purposely and any disclosure of stress or distress was met with reprimand or comparison instead of just the willingness to listen and to be and to be compassionate. And so what that instilled in me as a young person was that it was ...

I absolutely love teenagers. I love their piss and vinegar attitude. I love their belligerent behavior. I love their defiance. I love their raging hormones. I love everything about them. All the things that parents don't and can't do that make them pull out their hair. But here's what I know. They're struggling. And even if you don't have children, even if you you know children, you know their attitude and behavior, parenting is like riding a roller coaster blindfolded. Ups and downs, twists and turns, mome ...

[Music] I used to think discipline meant control. Control over my food, my body, my workouts, my life. Every calorie was a battle. Every skipped workout was a failure.And for a long time I thought this was strength. People even praised me for it, for my willpower, my dedication. But what no one saw was that that discipline was quietly destroying me.How I was disappearing not just physically but emotionally, mentally and socially. It started small. A skipped meal here, an extra run there.At first, it felt em ...
