I recorded this back in 2018, nervously reading a script in my room, alone, hoping no one could hear me. I remember how scared I was, even just saying the words out felt like too much. It’s a small part of my coming out story, and for years I... show more

But this Pride Month feels like the right time. If you are still in the closet, feeling afraid or uncertain, I hope this reaches you. It still sucks sometimes, but it really does get better. Just be yourself, you are more than enough! #pride

What a comeback story: 7 years ago (when I was a part-time blogger in Ohio writing about MY Columbus Blue Jackets), this guy chirped me nonstop and made videos like this one saying how much I sucked. Tonight he reached out with very kind words.

"February 7th was a very dark day for me, but it was also one of the most rewarding experiences of my life—it just took a little time to see. I struggled with some mental health issues and contemplated my life because of the mistakes I had made. I’m ashamed to say it, honestly, but it’s a part of what happened. I feel like God came to me in a dream and gave me an out-of-body experience where I could see who I was... I couldn’t even tell you how I said most of the things I said in the past or felt the way I felt back then. It’s almost like that person is gone." Joe Pyfer opens up about his recent struggles.

I remember when I was about 22 or 23, and I was at one of the lowest points in my life for various reasons… I felt the need to go to church and wanted to find “peace” in my heart. I felt lost… I felt like I needed God in my life. I didn’t know what that even meant, I just felt it. I ended up at a church with a pastor very similar to this man.. and I wasn’t even a spiritual person back then, but everything inside of me was screaming to get out. Looking back now, without knowing it.. I felt demonic forces at play. God was telling me to get out. Eventually I found my way, and that was only because of my journey — I sat down one night and just started talking to God… not even understanding that I was praying.. From that point on, my life changed so much and I began to see things differently, God revealed things to me, and taught me how to find clarity in all situations,.. I found peace. There is no peace that can be found at Churches like this and with Pastors like this… true peace comes when you just start opening your mouth to speak God’s name and begin talking to him. You don’t need a church to find God.

I’m out walking today, and my brain went, “Wait… something feels different.” My thighs aren’t rubbing together when I walk. They’re not overlapping. They’re not chafing. They’re not touching. It feels weird. Like genuinely weird. I can’t remember the last time this was true. Honestly, I think I was a kid. It unlocked a memory I haven’t thought about in decades. I was 15. Ninth grade. Walking out of school in Riverside, California. I remember exactly what I was wearing. Jeans and a pink top (of course🩷). My mom picked me up. When I got in the car, she said: “Your thighs overlap when you walk.” She probably didn’t mean it to be cruel. I think she thought she was being helpful. Or motivating. Or “scaring me straight.” But I was a 15-year-old girl who already felt too big, too much, not chosen, not wanted. And that sentence landed like a brick. Back then, being a little chunky might as well have been a crime. I didn’t have many friends. Boys didn’t notice me. I carried that shame quietly for a long time. Fast forward to today. I’m walking. My thighs aren’t touching. I literally have a thigh gap. I laughed out loud. Like… what? That’s fucking wild. It took me 40 years, but I got here. And it’s not just about the thigh gap. It’s about the healing. It’s about the body finally feeling safe. It’s about doing the work, slowly, imperfectly, consistently. Today felt like a full-circle moment I didn’t even know I needed. If you’re in the middle of your journey and it feels endless, hear me when I say this: Your body remembers everything. And it will surprise you one day. Even if it takes a while. 👑

It’s midnight and I have so much on my mind that I couldn’t sleep. I recorded this message because I felt like I wanted to share what I’m feeling. I’ve not done this in years but I felt the need to share. What are you feeling in this moment? What’s on your mind?

JOONGDUNK PRAEW PODCAST #DearMyselfxJoongDunk “third photo is the day when it was almost unbearable” —— 🌞it’s the photo that day i took my sister out; i had been working very hard for several consecutive days, but in the end she said she wanted to go out together. normally my sister doesn’t really want to go out with me much cause she likes staying in her room. although i was the one driving - in the end it seemed that day she was the one kind of taking me out. like sometimes we forget our goal but that everything i work for nowadays is to take care of my nongs nothing else. every day is tiring almost no free days, but i do all this work cause i want to see my nong at a good school - in a good place. that day made me feel that being close to my nong fulfilled something inside me like “yeah what i’m working for today is for my siblings - and that day we sat together and had a full meal with my nongs” my mom didn’t come she was tired and stayed home getting a massage : has this event been a long time ago? 🌞it was a long time ago. but i still remember it ecause sometimes we remember the day just from the feelings of that day - that’s why i chose this photo : that day going out with tired feelings but probably coming your room with a different feeling? 🌞actually it was another feeling kind of like still tired right but it’s the kind of tired that feels really good it was like reminding myself that today i really did what i wanted to do 🌞i see my nong sister has her own room - my nong brother has his own room and my little sister also has her own room. everyone in my family gets to eat what they want 🌞cause i grew up in conditions where i couldn’t have what i wanted. i didn’t have shoes as nice as others - didn’t have nice bags - didn’t have the best quality pencils. i would use almost a whole pencil before i could get a new one asking mom for a new pencil. so i felt that i don’t want my siblings to have to live like i did. : that was your life when you were in Turkey? 🌞yeah not extremely difficult but i had to be frugal : what you’re telling sounds like you were taking on your dad’s role 🌞yeah but did i want to do it? no! i didn’t want to take my dad’s place at all. if i could choose to go back if i could choose i would want my father still alive. but in the end everything forced me to grow up on the day i didn’t want to and in the end i did grow up

Windzaaaaaa!!!! No shame admitting this….i cried my eyes out watching this. NJPW was my life for 8 years. Leaving it back in 2024 was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done, because I have such a love for those letters. Seeing my future wife earn the respect of the company that gave me my career I cannot put into words the pride I have watching her walk out like a pokemon that’s in it final form of evolution was the best. And to see my mum standing up cheering her future daughter in law, Mate….this moment will live with me forever.

From then to now…. My 1st tryout…I had no idea how to take a bump, I didn’t even know what a “bump” was let alone what a “promo” was… I was so nervous you can hear the quiver in my voice. I had no idea what I was doing. The only thing I knew how to do was be me, because there is only ONE ME and that was my way to stand out. Shoutout to Mark Henry. So I wore my favorite rose outfit I made for a crossfit competition and showed that I may not come from this business, I may not know much but I will work my ass off and I will love and respect this business if I was given a chance. At 1st I always felt like I was stealing someone else’s dream so I threw myself whole heartedly into this. I dealt with imposter syndrome for A LONG time. I always felt like I had something to prove. Now… I know exactly who I am. I know how much hardwork I put in, I know my worth NO MATTER WHAT, and I know everything I’ve gotten and haven’t gotten yet IS MINE. Dream big. Do things you didn’t even think were meant for you. You never know. It might change your life and others along the way. #ESTofWWE #wrESTleMania41

“I was an organizer. An agitator. I know how this works. When the buses start coming in, it’s paid. When the signs are already made, it was decided in a meeting room. The money has to get cleared first. That’s how it’s done. I did this professionally. I knew how to pressure companies. I knew how to bring attention to my union—and how to bring attention to the people I was targeting. I was good at it. I won awards for it. My picture was on a wall in Midtown Manhattan. When I ran rallies, cops knew me. They knew I didn’t start trouble—and I never did. That didn’t make me weak. It made me smart. Risk versus reward. A police officer was never a reward worth the risk. I was taught by one of the best organizers in New York City. What I’m seeing now out on the streets? Paid protesting. Same playbook. They’re just doing one thing I never did. Attacking police isn’t smart. This isn’t theory. This is how it’s done— from someone who did it.”

I remember that when I was a little boy, I was afraid of the dark. We had a huge dog that would often attack my sister and me. One day, my grandmother found out about this. My parents had gone out for dinner. My grandmother took me into the garden, left me there, and said, “Don’t be afraid.” I watched her walk away, and I didn’t have the courage to tell her that I didn’t want to stay there. For me, those few minutes felt like two or three hours. I imagined snakes, dogs - everything that could scare me. Finally, my grandmother came back and asked, “What are you scared of?” I said, “I am scared of that dog, and I am scared of everything.” She said, “You are not scared of dogs or bats or the dark. You are scared of your mind, your imagination, and your thoughts.” Then she told me, “You should not be afraid of the dark, because the truth most often lies in the darkness. If you do not have the courage to face your fears or the darkness, you will never be able to understand or fight for the truth.” This was not only a political lesson, but more fundamentally, a religious lession - Satyam Shivam Sundaram. : LoP Shri Rahul Gandhi in Lok Sabha

This is actually what I wanted to share: I lived in this pit for years, YEARS I tried to clean/keep up with what I could, but anybody who's in a similar situation will understand how impossible it is to clean/counter roommates who actively work against you. If they want to be dirty... it's near impossible to counter it. Living in this environment, especially so long, was incredibly embarrassing and horrific for my mental health. The minute I moved to my new home and finally had a clean place to live in, I instantly felt my self esteem rise inherently. I never even realized how much living in shit made me feel like *I* was shit. I wanted to show and share this experience for those who are in a similar situation. This was a horrible, long term torturous experience for me. Yall have no idea the things I've seen and went through just being in this house. I feel so angry for the years that I had to go through this (because I have nowhere else to go) and how sad it makes me that my own family is living in this way and doesn't want to get better about it. I really tried to help them get better about it but it was clear there was no interest. I will still get sad and depressed about myself... in fact I already have been even in my new beautiful home. A shiny room can't make my internal depression magically go away but... NOT living THERE sure helps. If you have and especially are going through something similar, just know you are not alone in that experience. :(

We had some good times with Blockbuster didn’t we? Oh the memories of going in on a Saturday night to pick a movie with my brothers. I remember my mom wanted a movie so bad and it was all “sold out.” As my brothers and I went to leave the cashier was like “wait that movie just came in.” I was like 16 years old and that joy still sticks with me to this day. I wish I could remember what movie though.😂 You had to be there to understand. ❤️

I am done with everything in a house being connected to the internet. It’s Sunday evening, I’m alone and suddenly I hear music in my house, super weird, I start looking around to find the source and what the heck- it was coming from my THERMOSTAT…I didn’t even know my thermostat had an f’ing Bluetooth speaker. Those that know my family will default to this being one of Your Data Sucks genius pranks, it wasn’t, still no idea how it happened.

Nobody can ever say I was handed anything in my life! People are calling me the Cinderella of professional wrestling, but here’s the truth. Here’s parts of my Cinderella story…. I didnt grow up in a family of wrestlers. My family did not understand wrestling and called it trash. I myself was called trash when I became a wrestler. So if I was going to make this happen, I have to do this alone. With that being said Wrestling schools are expensive. So I took whatever job I could find which happened to be night shift positions at Wal-mart. I was in LA so I could go to KNOKX PRO ENT. under life There I slept out of my vehicle in the day time without air conditioning! everyday for a full year. Just so I could train, just so I could become a wrestler!! Training was so important to me. I didn’t want to be a Mountain Dew drinking Mark in tights? I wanted to be a professional athlete a professional actor, entertainer, a professional wrestler! But this is God’s plan not mine. During one of my matches I end up suffering an accident that put me in a wheelchair. I had to leave California and all my dreams were put on a shelf just so I could heal. I mean, wrestlers get hurt it happens. It’s all about how you get back up and what you do with yourself. Right? Well seven years passed 15 different doctors were seen, four surgeries were performed and not a single soul knew how to save my life. I was frustrated. I was losing my 20s. My whole entire life was slipping away and I was just existing in a wheelchair in agonizing pain. I had no relief. No hope! The pain had spread from my original injury to full body!! doctors didn’t know what to do. They didn’t understand my pain nor could they explain to me what was happening! I was terrified. If a doctor can’t save me, then who could?! It was a dark time, The only thing that kept me alive during my wheelchair days was the idea of fulfilling my wrestling career. I know it sounds cliché but wrestling as much as it killed me wrestling has saved me. With the medical community abandoning me I brought it upon myself to go to a planet fitness every single day and relearn how to walk again! That’s right! I didn’t have nurses holding my arms up as I taught myself how to walk again! I didn’t have a rehab facility. I didn’t have pain pills. I was raw dogging this as I was forced to do my rehab in a public f’n gym?! Well after a year of hard work, I was in a planet fitness every single day for 10 hours, forcing my body to walk, willing it to stand for long periods of time and I did it!! I fought through this mysterious pain, relearn how to stand and walk, & I also lost over 100lbs! After these accomplishments I went to one last doctor to tell them my story. My final doctor after all of this hard work. She reviewed everything & gave me the bad news. My body was not battling a little wrestling injury. It actually activated a rare disease! It’s not just any diseases, but it’s the most painful pain known to mankind! My dr with tears in her eyes asked me how I survived this long?! & that I was so brave! She was shock I haven’t touched any pain pills nor any other treatments. It was just me, and my will to survive! She then told me that I’m a medical one in 1 million! “You’re very much lucky to still be here with us kid! This sickness is nicknamed the suicide disease! Also I’m so sorry, but there is no cure!” I have filmed my journey from the beginning. Being homeless, helping bleach out the mats, scrubbing toilets, going days without food. I did it all to become a professional wrestler. Just to be rob of my career! and then to be giving this horrible sickness for the rest of my life? With all of my suffering, going years undiagnosed, fighting back, and now getting my body to a point that it can take a bump in a ring?! For the past year I have spread awareness to my rare disease! Not only this but I have sparked hope in others that are sick! I’m the first of my kind, but I won’t be the last!

Nobody can ever say I was handed anything in my life! People are calling me the Cinderella of professional wrestling, but here’s the truth. Here’s parts of my Cinderella story…. I didnt grow up in a family of wrestlers. My family did not understand wrestling and called it trash. I myself was called trash when I became a wrestler. So if I was going to make this happen, I have to do this alone. With that being said Wrestling schools are expensive. So I took whatever job I could find which happened to be night shift positions at Wal-mart. I was in LA so I could go to KNOKX PRO ENT. under life There I slept out of my vehicle in the day time without air conditioning! everyday for a full year. Just so I could train, just so I could become a wrestler!! Training was so important to me. I didn’t want to be a Mountain Dew drinking Mark in tights? I wanted to be a professional athlete a professional actor, entertainer, a professional wrestler! But this is God’s plan not mine. During one of my matches I end up suffering an accident that put me in a wheelchair. I had to leave California and all my dreams were put on a shelf just so I could heal. I mean, wrestlers get hurt it happens. It’s all about how you get back up and what you do with yourself. Right? Well seven years passed 15 different doctors were seen, four surgeries were performed and not a single soul knew how to save my life. I was frustrated. I was losing my 20s. My whole entire life was slipping away and I was just existing in a wheelchair in agonizing pain. I had no relief. No hope! The pain had spread from my original injury to full body!! doctors didn’t know what to do. They didn’t understand my pain nor could they explain to me what was happening! I was terrified.

Dave Chappelle says he walked away from $50,000,000 and didn’t even notice he was making $8M in a single year “I thought my career was over. I believed that for a few more years. So I went through the whole process of mourning the narrative I had in my head of being a big star. And at that time I was just back in Yellow Springs. Welcome back, superstar. I was like, oh man…” “Took me four years to get over it. But man, imagine how liberating that is, to believe that it’s over. And I got over it, and I just went back to work. I still needed money, and I could still fill rooms up, ’cause people liked the show. So I started back in comedy clubs” “One time somebody called me saying, Congratulations, you just made the Forbes list. And I’m like what? And I looked, because I don’t just count the money as it comes in. I looked, and that year… I’d made $8,000,000” “And I was tenth in the top ten. And then I looked at the other nine names, and I’m like, maybe I should come back”

Robert Pattinson regrets saying he didn’t work out for The Batman “Everyone was like, ‘You didn’t work out at all.’ I worked out every f*cking day. Even after that, I still look like I didn’t work out. “I worked out twice a day at, like, three o’clock in the morning. “I’m like, It’s just because I said it in an interview once that exercise was uncool. I was trying to sound cool!”

Beasley: "In my whole nine years in the NBA I never had this much fun coming to the gym. I’ve been through a lot of stuff just this year alone, and every day coming in was probably the best thing that happened to me … it’s definitely a place I want to be."
