S2 | E15: Recovering From Abuse: Hannah Bower shares her story

 

A note from Hannah: Like many of you, I am no stranger to hard times. I was once a gymnast for the University of Nebraska. That is until I dislocated both of my elbows at the same time. This is only after recovering from breaking both ankles at the same time.

I lost my sport, my identity, and my self-worth. I spiraled into depression, anxiety, and extreme sudden weight gain. It is no surprise that eating disorders, obsessive thoughts, and low self-worth found its way into my life. I was then sexually abused, which shattered me. I was completely broken. Shortly after I had a car accident that should have killed me.

I am no stranger to pain or hardships. I’ve encountered some pretty hard shit that’s brought me to my knees. But I am thankful for those moments that I couldn’t understand at the time because it’s paved the way for the life I have now, the outlook I have now and the empathy I have for other peoples struggles.

It allowed me to dive into my career helping woman find their worth. My page, and my life is dedicated to helping women break through toxic diet and fitness culture. To help mothers navigate confident and safe pregnancies and easier postpartum journeys.

More than anything I’m also just a regular mom navigating life and doing the best I can.


Message from Hannah:

Hey Beautiful People, I sincerely apologize for not including all genders in my statements during this podcast. I was extremely anxious during it. However my words were insensitive as my language choice wasn’t inclusive. Listening back on it, it was the first thing I wish I could have spoken differently. I hope you know my heart and message is genuine. Sending you all so much love.
