Summary

Hi, I’m Haley Erickson. I spent years obsessing over every calorie and every workout, letting my life revolve around an unhealthy fixation on my body image—a habit rooted in early influences from my mom. My entire identity was consumed by the need to look a certain way, and even though I appeared healthy, the constant pressure left me isolated, depressed, and desperate. Then, after a severe leg injury halted my routine and shattered my control over my life, I reached a breaking point. In that moment of crisis, I cried out to Jesus for help. Through a powerful encounter with a trusted mentor who reminded me of God’s truth, I surrendered my obsession and allowed Him to renew my mind. Today, I see myself as He sees me—a cherished creation with true worth, and I now share this testimony in the hope that others will find healing and freedom in Christ.
