Happy 1 Year of BS with Bethany Simko!
It used to piss me off when people would say "It gets better". But looking at the life I have now, I can only agree. And it doesn't just get better, it gets phenomenal.
This time of the year is full of big anniversaries for me. When I was 17, I was having an extremely hard time with my mental health, to the point that 4 years ago, I attempted to leave this here earth.
Here I am now at 21, living in Hawaii as a fitness instructor with the opportunity to lay in the sunshine and impact the lives around me. During my workout meetup in Ohio, I had the distinct feeling that I know what I'm here. Hearing the stories from each and every girl there and hearing the way my life has touched theirs, I felt a wave of gratitude and a sense of purpose. It makes sense why I had to learn the lessons I learned.
Can you imagine I didn't get to experience all of this? I'm taking this life as the second chance I know it is and asking for everything and more. Because this is my fairytale and it's yours too.
If you are struggling, I encourage you to reach out to someone around you, or contact the suicide hotline 988 for immediate help. It won't feel like this forever, and your soul belongs on this earth. I love you <3
