bake with me @ 5 a.m. l mental health q&a l dealing with extreme hunger, staying motivated...

hi besties! 🌷 time for another little mental health q&a. Getting really vulnerable in today's video talking about my recovery, where I am now, and sharing what keep me motivated. I just want you to know that I am in now way a licensed professional and the advice and experiences I share are based on my own experiences on my mental health journey. Nevertheless, I encourage you to listen and do what is best for YOU on your own journey. Recovery is subjective. What works for others might or might not work for you and that okay. How you approach your recovery doesn't minimize how worthy you are to live a life filled with love and abundance.
Sending you all so much love! Always here for you! 🤍

I'm happy to hear that you're in a better place now Zoe! And thank you for the video. :) Just wanted to point out that the audio was really soft, so it was hard to hear you. Just thought I'd make sure you were aware of this. Maybe it's just my device? Idk but regardless, great video! Please continue doing what you do. You're helping a lot of people. :)

Thank you so much Maya! I've been meaning to upgrade my camera since it's been a little wonky so I'm hoping that will help improve it! Always appreciate your kind words!! 💖
