This journey has taught me so much about myself and how much I have grown and evolved since that kid in high school and college who was obsessed with being the best, but took it too far and constantly overtrained. The girl who had such an unhealthy relationship with food and battled eating disorders that even years later, as an adult, she couldn’t even hear the word “diet” without her shooting me.
I wanted to push myself, to test myself… see if I could commit without going too far, see if I had learned to listen to my body, see if I could diet again and have self-control without going crazy. I really faced my fears with this one. I invested these 10 weeks in re-learning myself and it took me on a self discovery journey of self love, commitment and dedication to myself. It was physically challenging to find time to constantly train between my WWE schedule of touring for live events, TV shows, traveling internationally to Mexico and Saudi Arabia, having historic matches like the Ladder Match, Last Woman Standing Match and 45 minutes in a War Games match the WEEK BEFORE the competition! It was very difficult, but I gave it my all… sometimes after my matches and shows, I was in the gym late at night doing my exercises and constantly traveling with prepared food to follow my diet… but as much as it was a physical challenge, it was more mental!
I have evolved I have matured I have self control. I have learned the importance of balance and now I listen to my body! I have completely fallen in love with who I have become and will always be grateful for this journey. Thank you @wbffentertainment for welcoming me with open arms into your world and giving me a space where I could also unapologetically show myself and a space I could use to navigate this personal journey. I felt at home! Fitness + FASHION!!!!
