hi 👋🏽

Hey friends 👋🏽 I thought I’d introduce myself. I’m Bronty, and if I had to sum myself up in one line, it would be: stronger than I ever realised.

My journey with mental health started young. Anxiety has always been part of my life, and at times it’s shown up as full-blown panic disorder. I’ve had seasons where panic attacks ruled my days and depression made it hard to get out of bed. On top of that, I’m neurodivergent, and for years I masked just to get by, which led to endless cycles of burnout. I’ve also lived through toxic and controlling relationships that left me feeling like I was failing at life.

But here’s the thing, I didn’t break. I left the life that was destroying me, I discovered who I really am and I started to truly know myself. Now I'm understanding my triggers, my values, and the tools to help me through the hard days.

I’m also a mum, and honestly? Parenting while healing yourself has been the hardest but most meaningful thing I’ve ever done. Helping my daughter learn about her emotions while I’m still figuring out my own has taught me resilience like nothing else.

I’m definitely still a work in progress, but I’m proud of how far I’ve come. From surviving to actually living. Excited to be here with you all 🌻🌞
