The harsh REALITY of being a Kaigai IDOL

In the effort of sharing my journey as authentically as possible, I wanted to share a more vulnerable moment I had this week as I struggled with some anxious feelings around the sustainability of being an Idol.

For years it's something I've strived towards, and put every effort into being the best performer I can be, but showbusiness, and entertainment, is tough. I understand that only a rare few truly make it, and whilst I've had so many incredible moments of happiness and memories that will last my lifetime. This realization is one I cannot ignore, even if I don't know what action to take next.

It's heartbreaking to me that I haven't been able to support myself more, I'm going to make it my main goal moving forward, to priorities my own wellbeing, emotionally, financially and physically.

I love talking to my friends about their goals,
Now I need to go out and redefine mine...
