I was born in Bennettsville, SC, to a single mother raising six children, with me being the youngest. From a young age, I’ve been the shy, quiet one who found it challenging to navigate socially. I’ve often been compared to my siblings, with questions about why I couldn’t be more like them. Over the years, this led to struggles with self-worth, as it seemed everyone around me emphasized my shortcomings. It’s been a journey of fighting to discover my purpose and learning to embrace and love myself.
