No. I’m still not over it...part of me is still in Miami Beach living right here in these very moments. I chased one of my biggest lifelong dreams and SO much of it came true thanks to the beautiful soul in the first picture. 🤍 @mj_day . Truth be told, I probably will NEVER get over it. This was special in a billion different ways. It taught me so much about myself, what I’m capable of, and how much passion for life that I truly have. It taught me about vulnerability, trust, true friendship, and humility. My hope is that while I’m constantly in a state of learning about myself, I’m teaching others things as well... How to love themselves unconditionally, flaws, weaknesses and all. How to be unapologetically YOU without other’s opinions getting in the way. How to push past the limitations that we put on ourselves or that others put on us. How to PERSEVERE and live life out loud. In more ways than one, i DON’T WANT to get over it. It was one of the proudest, “pinch me please”moments of my lifetime. I walked on a runway with, had breakfast with, danced with, drank wine with, had fittings with, walked the red carpet with, got glammed up with, was nervous with, laughed with, worked out with, made friends with, made memories with some of the most iconic,gorgeous women on the planet for Sports Illustrated Swim! No, 🥺 I didn’t make it as a Rookie for 2023 for @si_swimsuit ... but I experienced something unbelievable that nothing can take away from me. It’s a moment I will hold in my heart FOREVER. Smiling from ear to ear with tears rolling down my cheeks just thinking about it. I can’t promise it will be my last post about it EVER lol...but I will promise I will dial it back some for a bit. 😉 Humbled. Grateful. BLESSED. #siswimsuit #sportsillustratedswimsuit #siswimsearch #finalist #siswimsuitmodel #dreamchaser #nevergiveup #over50 #momsover50 #thursdaythoughts
