I've always believed in the value of stories, but I believe there's even more power that flows from a person's testimony. In May 2018, I found myself in very crippling place both mentally and spiritually. On paper and in person, everything in my life seemed to be in order. But what people around me didn't know is that I was mentally and emotionally sick. I wanted my life to end.

I've shared my story with only a handful of people in person. But after the passing of one of my biggest inspirations, Cheslie Kryst, I decided to share my story on a much larger scale. Maybe you can't relate to my story, but nonetheless, you do have a story that the world needs to hear. I hope this video inspires you to speak up and speak out.

Cheslie is no longer here to hear my story. She will never be able to watch this video and know that she wasn't alone. I am not able to encourage her the way I would have liked, but I can do it for others. I created this video to help the other "Cheslie's and Amber's" out there. Women (and men) who appear to be so strong and so together, but who find themselves struggling with perfectionism, validation, and high expectations.

If there's nothing you gain from this video, please remember this:

You have dignity. You have value. And you have worth.
True satisfaction, joy, and meaning; can only be found in Christ and in Christ alone.

Be encouraged.
