. The video is over an hour, wrote up a summary for my friend and figured I would post it here! Kat posted the vid.
1. Started having depressive episodes. Said their mom killed herself from mental illness when they were young. I think she has mention this before.
2. Got covid and had symptoms for a long time, brain fog and exhaustion, couldn’t work out.
3. Bought a house with her fiancé but then freaked out and sold it and broke up with him because of her mental state—said she was overwhelmed and that they were moving too fast. She only said very very nice things about him how supportive he was of her and wanted to help her, but said she knew only she could get herself out this hole. Also said she was dependent on Kendra and vice versa their whole lives.
4. Had a panic attack and had to call 911, saw different psychiatrists and therapists, etc.
5. Was bulimic in high school before ever learning about nutrition. Followed Layne Norton and learned about reverse dieting and bulking.
6. Felt like her worth was only based on her lean, muscular figure, and without that she had nothing to offer people. Didn’t want to be on social media without her physique because she didn’t know what to post.
7. Was afraid of losing sponsorships/losing money so she went back to school just in case, but they’re still well off and retained all their sponsors. She’s very happy to be back in school and around people that don’t know her from social media.
8. Overall gained around 45 pounds during this time but ultimately said she’s in a great place, and is back into lifting and health and genuinely enjoying it. Finally feels happy within herself without dependent relationships/external validation.
She seemed really good. Nothing but love to her for sharing all of this.
