In honor of season and becoming a voting member of The Emmys 🏆 , I’m sharing clips (4 of 4) from my journey. Grateful for every moment. 🙏🏽

iCarly was fun. Jerry was personable and a joy to work with. We snapped some silly selfies backstage. My nephew loved hearing about it, haha. Thanks for having me and so kindly showing me Paramount Studios — loved hearing about your journey. Happy to reunite last week.

What’s crazy is that I was struggling with an eating disorder (for 12 years) during the course of all of these experiences I’m about to share. Happy I’m 44 days in full recovery now! It’s possible. 🥰❤️‍🩹

In honor of season and becoming a voting member of The Emmys 🏆 , I’m sharing clips (3 of 4) from my journey. Grateful for every moment. 🙏🏽

I want to hug my younger self. At this time in my life, I was taking easy gogo dancing gigs rather than focusing on my professional dance career with my agent. I remember gogo dancing late the night before and staying up even later to rhinestone my outfit. I didn’t prepare my answers, which is why there are a lot of um’s.

I do love seeing my energy and authenticity. I was so transparent that I told the judges it was my first time auditioning because I was late the year before and the doors were shut on national television. Little Lynhthy! 🙊🙈😂

What makes me cry is throughout all of these clips I was struggling heavily with an eating disorder for 12 years. I want to tell younger Lynhthy to heal her deep-rooted feelings of unworthiness. I did a lot of self-sabotaging behavior (like showing up late to Laker Girl finals) to protect myself from the pain of past unhealed trauma. I was scared and hurt. 🥺

One year later I quit gogo dancing and fully focused on my dance career, which led to dancing with Justin Timberlake and laying in Beyoncé lap. This eventually led to my full-time career now as an actor and performer in television, commercials, and film.

It takes a lot of inner work to heal, let go of what’s comfortable and trust leveling up towards the unknown in my ever-evolving career. As I successfully let go of the eating disorder, it gives me the confidence to let go of old identities and trust my inner being and vibrational point of attraction. Thank you to my supportive + loving network, my therapist, and my team of agents that believe in me. Here’s to the next level up. 🥰❤️‍🩹🙌🏽

You are not alone. Thank you for your responses on my last post - it’s empowering me to share more of my truth.

On Valentine’s Day, I made a commitment to FULL eating disorder recovery. I started attending online support groups and have been creating space to offer/share what’s been helpful on my transformation journey. I speak on some healing topics here:
- Identity
- Love
- Staying rooted in your WHY
- Focusing on the FEELING
- Working IN before working out

My intention is to share the stories behind the stories, empower you to look within, and emphasize being process-driven over results-driven. Oftentimes, you only see the result (the booking, the headshots, the highlight reel, etc.). What I want to reveal is the deep inner work that unfolds in the process and tell the true story. You may recognize yourself or a loved one through these stories. 📖

My mission is to elevate the collective consciousness and facilitate healing. It starts by doing the work myself and showing up for others in this capacity. ❤️‍🩹

“I hope this helps in anyway. I’m here for YOU. I’m here to support you. You’re not alone. Sending love.” Xx ♥️♥️♥️

Is anything resonating? What’s your process been looking like? Where might you be needing more support? Let’s open up our hearts, minds, and conversations. YOU got this. ✊🏽
