A vulnerable clip from the morning of World Champs High Diving Finals. 🥹
Yes, I live with anxiety — and yes, it’s really hard to be a competitive athlete when your brain tells you you’re only enough if you succeed. 🤕 SPOILER ALERT: success doesn’t always mean medals ✨
Even though I was so in the zone physically and mentally… I’m still human.
And on my last dive, I unfortunately landed with my arms up instead of down.
Does that mean I’m a failure? No. Does it mean I don’t deserve to be proud of myself? Absolutely not.
I’ve learned that this journey is about so much more than medals. It’s about getting back up, choosing courage even when it’s scary, and showing up — honestly. 💁♀️
I’m so proud of how I carried myself this week. And I’m endlessly grateful for everyone who supports me for the whole ride — the highs, the lows, the brave in-betweens. 💗 ily bravegang_
I hope this video helps someone feel seen today. Please remember you are not alone xoxo 🫶
