Even when I get scared the fragment behind my eye will move and Ill lose my sight, I'm reminded that I'm still alive 🙏 so today I made my bed. #anxiety
Selection isn’t about who you are when you start—it’s about who you become when you leave. This week, the DS pulled me aside to dig into my childhood, career, and journey through sobriety. Deep, vulnerable stuff. As a reality show rookie, you just hope those moments are handled with care. But Special Forces isn’t your typical reality show—it’s raw, it’s unfiltered, and it forces you to face yourself in ways you never expected. Much like recovery, it holds you accountable. Looking back, I realize that’s exactly why I came. After our conversation, DS Rudy told me: “No matter how hard the training gets, don’t forget to listen to the birds in the sky.” In that moment, I didn’t just feel watched—I felt seen. I may have been marked a liability in the field, but that only fuels me more that I am back home. I’m walking away with so much more than just eight days—I’m walking away stronger. 💪 #specialforcesfox #sobriety
In 2024, I turned 40, signed a book deal with a top publisher, and said yes to my first reality show. The only problem? I was a mom of young kids who hadn't worked out in years and suddenly had just weeks to get in shape from square one. Maybe negative one. Starting was the hardest part, but here's what l learned: It's not about where you're starting-it's about refusing to give up. Life will call you to rise when you least expect it, and it's your mindset that determines if you answer. Commit to the ever-changing rhythm of life, and trust that your goals-big or small-are just the beginning. The universe has plans for you beyond what you can imagine. Keep going. Keep showing up. Stay humble. Show gratitude. The best is yet to come. #SpecialForcesFOX Jan 8

Never posted this on TikTok, but since some of you have been asking what happened, here’s it is: On February 7th, my husband’s birthday, I took him to shoot clay pigeons as a present. There was another party with us and they unsafely fired in the wrong direction and shot me in the face. @Brendan Rooney immediately sprung into action, assessed me, and rushed me to the hospital. I was hit in 5 places, one was less than an inch from hitting me directly in my right eye. Unfortunately a fragment got lodged behind my eye and it is too risky to remove surgically at this time. Doctors will continue to monitor me (I can see normally at the moment). With everything that happened, all I can think about is how grateful I am to be alive. I love my daughters, husband, family, and friends so much. I saw my life flash before my eyes and I’m telling you, hug the people around you every chance you can. Life can change in an instant. 🙏
