Repost: @vanderkittenofficial “I do know I wouldn’t be the person I am today if it wasn’t for the hard times. I have been reflecting a lot - if I hadn’t have gone through so much heartbreak, challenge, and turbulence in the last 5-6 years, I might not have hit my personal rock bottom and decided to get sober. I might not have reignited my passion for cycling and put my health (mental and physical) first. And that fact alone is enough to trust that I had to take this exact path to be better. There was no other way. Everything that happened, good and bad, brought me here. I never want to go through those years again but they were necessary to become the person I am today. I know that challenges are ever present as part of the human condition; we can either allow them to control us or we can learn from them and take control of our own destiny.” 😼🚴🏻♀️💪🏻🔥✨❤️ @sariashi #transformationtuesday . . #vanderkitten #vk4life #kitupkickass #befierce #empowerment #empoweredwomen #empoweringwomen #getoutside #getsober https://www.instagram.com/p/BxhqjcipbAq/?igshid=l5w3z7ms3h2t
