Jasmine Jones: Miss Guam Collegiate

Hello Loves! 
My name is Jasmine Jones and I am honored to be Miss Guam Collegiate 2021. My best friend taught me that vulnerability is brave. Authenticity is brave. What the world views as weak is really brave! Being B.R.A.V.E truly starts with learning how to be B.R.A.V.E for yourself. 

As for me, I suffer from anxiety and PTSD and use to have awful depression and suicidal thoughts. The old version of who I use to be would have never shared that with anyone, let alone on a big platform! But now I'm not afraid to share the scars and wounds from my suicide attempts because others need to see that it doesn't stop you from becoming the best version of yourself. The past doesn't define your future. In this case, I was the one bullying myself. Until my best friend taught me to extend grace to myself. I'm working on my mental health just as everyone else because being a pageant queen doesn't separate me from being human. I'm a queen at heart. 

B.R.A.V.E has allowed me to combine the national Miss Collegiate America bullying platform with my personal platform "Mental Health Matters". 
Being truly B.R.A.V.E is healing. And I am healing with you. ​
