A Queen Creek mother is competing for the title of Ms. Health and Fitness, a nationwide contest hosted by HERS magazine. MORE ⬇️
Although she’s proud of shedding 30 pounds in the last year, she’s more focused on opening up a very important conversation centered on healing.
Boergadine says when she was seven years old she was sexually abused by a neighbor. She shared the difficult details about the horrifying experience that left her broken for decades. Over the past year, Boergadine has opened up about the abuse and channeled that pain into physical fitness, going on a weightless journey that would also lead to a tremendous weight off her shoulders.She says many times an overwhelming feeling of embarrassment or distrust can keep you from seeking help. Boergadine said she never told a trusting adult at the time but brought it up to a few friends when she was a teen. Their reaction was rather unexpected.
In hopes of breaking that cycle, the mother of two turned to social media to share her story. She opened up a dialog to shed the shame and embrace the healing.“I’m going to be featured if I win on the cover of HERS magazine, and I get to tell my story and it gets to reach a lot of people,” said Boergadine.
