On how she is staying strong mentally.
“I realized that I was dealing with abandonment issues, and just last year, I started to really deal with it. My dad was in and out of my life growing up, and other instances where I felt abandoned were coming up to the surface.
I started to write these things down, and I remember just crying like a baby. I will say that it is so freeing when you can identify your trauma.
