Tears & Tulle Talk Season 2, Podcast Episode 007! This week’s podcast features Tears & Tulle Trailblazer participant, Margaret Harding! In Margaret's Words... In March as the pandemic was ramping up I was in Oklahoma and received news that my job was closing, the next leg of my trip was cancelled (I was headed to Idaho to volunteer at a special needs pageant), how I was getting home was unsure as the shuttle service I used from the airport stopped running, and there was threat of airports shutting down. Needless to say I was super stressed. My sister looked at me and said “go sweat so you can calm down”. We were at a hotel for a an event and she knew that sweating calmed me down, that’s when I decided to do my pictures in the hotel’s fitness center. Over the years I’ve learned that being able to workout is one of the best ways for me to handle the stress of life. I am a survivor of incest, sexual abuse, mental abuse, I live with depression and have a mild case of ptsd; with all of this I can have a hard time seeing through the fog of life. Three things have kept me sane and grounded; Faith - my faith in Jesus Christ my savior. Volunteering - being able to refocus my negative energy in a positive way. Exercise - being able to physically release my negative energy. Find Margaret on Instagram at @states_of_service
