Meet Kasi.....
I love Jesus, wine, Diet Dr. Pepper, high heels and flip-flops. Life is all about balance and finding the right amount of the elements that work for you.
We have all fought battles to be where we are. Some mental, some physical, some spiritual. But all had one thing in common: they were HARD. People are always shocked to learn that I once had an eating disorder, had periods in my life where I wanted to die and struggled to get out of bed. I don't care how many degrees you have or what you believe in, we have all fought battles. Lucky me, I have felt called to make mine public. Really public. Hopefully, that translates into "lucky you" as you can relate to them and we all become a little more real to each other. Either way, cheers to you for staying with the fight! I have finally come to a place of truly believing that it's worth it. And so am I. And so are you. |
