HELLO, IT’S ME! 

You guys. I literally just pushed the publish button and ran away.

200

Why?

Because I finally did it.

After 173 posts, 533 days, and about a bajillion funny cat gifs later, I have FINALLY worked up the courage to share with you who I am.

img_3721

And courage is definitely the correct verbiage here, because let’s be real — I’ve shared some rather recklessly personal things here on BBB.

Anywho…if you want to subscribe to my YouTube channel, that’d be freakin’ awesome…if not, you won’t hurt my feelings 🙂

Alright…enough chit chat! Let’s get into it!

 

Lastly, any future video suggestions are more than welcome! 🙂

Thanks for watching!

  3. Hi Caroline, no need to run away, you’re out in the open now, and how lucky for us! 🙂 You’re gorgeous, sparkly and so brave, just like you sound on your blog and I’d love to see more of you and your adventures in NYC. Great video, well done beautiful lady and hope you do more. Big hugs to you from a friend down under. xo 🙂

  6. Congratulations on your video!! The funny thing about this video is that you sound EXACTLY like how I thought you would lol. Keep on posting! Your personality really shines on camera and you’re hilarious!

  8. Caroline, you are so adorable. I love your qwerky and weird vibe. I think once you’ve done this a few times, you’ll be more relaxed. It’s so nice to meet you. You are such an inspiration. I look forward to more videos and learning more about you. Congrats on your first video. You are awesome!

    Much love,

  9. So excited to subscribe to your YT channel!! Just did, in fact 🙂 you inspire me. I’m in recovery for an Ed.. Mia. I’ve been attending/leading a Celebrate Recovery group for 4 years. Just spent the last 18 months in a horrible relapse. The great news? I’m 30 days sober today! Haven’t strung 30 days in a row in 18 months. God is good and I’m learning more about myself and my dependence on Him. My need for control has really been exposed these last months and it’s given me time to really work on myself and learn to daily surrender! You are BRAVE my friend and I’m excited for this next step for you!

    Reply

    • Aw thank you Christy! That’s so kind of you! Wow how powerful that you’re leading that group. And congrats on 30 days! That is something to really celebrate. Amen to that-God is SO good. Stay strong my friend. You inspire me!! Sending big big hugs xoxo

    • Wayne!! Aw thanks friend. You seriously played such a role in giving me the confidence to share more of my story-share my voice. I am so grateful for the opportunity you gave me on your podcast. You’re a great friend. Thanks☺️☺️☺️ Hugs and love xox

  15. Well well well welcome to the internet. Thank you for the reveal. I know at first when I begin to read your blog I thought for sure you were an Olsen twin and I was going to say something stupid like they have a twin too. In all seriousness you have guts. But I have 2 questions for you now that your big reveal is complete what is the next step for your website? my next question is when is Relevant Magazine or People magazine going to knock on your door and ask you for an interview regarding this whole subject the subject of you? AFS.

    Reply

    • Haha thanks friend:) LOL! an Olsen twin–that is — my dream 😍 haha oh my goodness you are so kind. I’m going to just keep the blog going as usual with the addition of YouTube videos! So nothing too earth shattering! lol thanks for for enthusiasm and friendship through it all! Hugs and love xox

      • You know what buddy I have to tell you something over the past and what you’ve shared a lot with us. I appreciate that and I’m sure many other readers do as well. I know the blog has transformed you into beautiful person in Christ. That’s actually one of the reasons I started my own blog. I got into a bit of an accident in college that almost cost me my very life and I can’t believe that I’m telling you this but I made a covenant with God to spare me because I knew that I was going to heaven God is so gracious that he accepted the Covenant that I made with him that night and I went on to receive salvation and the baptism of the Holy Ghost. all the former things this guy used to take part in I count as dung I’ve given my heart to the Lord and I have now for the past three years I haven’t regretted any of it and I’m so humbled by how he was able to reach me I’m so honored and yet I feel unworthy to receive any of it one of these days I will have to write my testimony so you can get a better idea of who I am. I know I have given you my name but I feel like because you shared so much with me I have to share so much with you. Thank you Carolyn even your name sounds cool much better than that Hilary Swank girl just kidding

      • You know what Carolyn the truth is is that I’ve shared so much with you already that it’s like we’re like best friends or something I don’t know how to put it. I don’t know why I can talk to strangers on the internet better than I can talk to my own parents about certain things. I’m glad for your friendship Carolyn and now that I know your name I can officially put you in prayer so that you can have a standing order upstairs

  18. Gratified to see that I was right about the “perfect symmetry” thing. For my part, I can’t even open my mouth to talk without my left brain taking over, causing the left side of my fact to go all limp.

    So maybe you should change the title of this thing. How about “Beauty Beyond Boundaries”?

    And from your early posts, I have the sense that you can generate a little gravitas. I would enjoy an apologetics or reflection on a favorite passage of scripture; or just a sharing about a person that you love. Putting a tone of voice to the serious matters you’ve written about would add an extra dimension.

    • Hey there Brian! Hahaha oh gosh thank you ☺️ those are some really great video suggestions. I love that idea about a scripture passage. Taking note! Thanks for your constant encouragement and friendship, Brian. It means the world. Hugs and love xox

  19. Awesome! This probably took a lot of courage, but you did it! Yay! And, yes, you should definitely continue with the videos (w/o giving up your blog, though.) I am so grateful for you, your blog, your life story, your faith… God bless you!

  26. It was nice to meet you, almost like a skype with a friend. What I see is what I felt, that you are so genuine and real in your effort to recovery and in sharing the path to victory in such a personal way, that I see the light in your soul and it shines as a beacon for others to find their way out of darkness too. It was a brave and beautiful thing to do. I would love your videos to stay true to who you are no matter the subject. Because who you are is the best part of all. Cyber hugs and congrats from me and the dragons.

  27. Well, you did it! As so many have said before me. What does it do for me? I know your name and a little of your personality. What does it do for you? I can only speculate, but my tears while watching we’re of such joy for you. I could feel the freedom being released. The end of long, chapter in your life. A time of self exploration and deep healing. Sharing much of it with your loyal followers. The best feeling is that I felt a whole new beginning opening up for you, which I believe will be an even larger and more amazing adventure.

    Congratulations!! It’s truly a pleasure to finally meet you. 🙂

I have not read your blog postings, yet. I did watch your video and I will now go back and read. Thank you for sharing yourself with us. Blessings!

      • Oh my gosh thank you so much! You have no idea how much your words have touched my heart. So glad our paths crossed. Thanks for watching. Big hugs xox

  28. Thanks for sharing! And good job on stepping out of your comfort zone. I look forward to more videos.

    I know how you feel. Although I haven’t ever struggled with anorexia, much of what you write about I can relate to on other levels, and even though we only know each other through our blogs, I think of you as a friend as well, or at least I feel like we could be friends if the opportunity ever came up. I sometimes have things I wish I could say in replies, but I’m not always comfortable putting it in a comment where everyone can see it. I know you have tons of followers and I’m just one of them… but I really appreciate the way you always respond to comments individually.

  29. This is the first of your posts/videos that I have read and watched. And seriously just that 5 minute video was encouraging to me. I’m just starting up my blog and Instagram so that I can eventually share my story of binge eating and my fitness journey. And I loved what you said about “claiming the freedom God has given you”…it’s so true. And there’s no need to be ashamed of my past because it’s not me anymore. Thank you for your transparency and charming weirdness 😉 embrace all of you because it is beautiful!

      • How great to finally meet you as your identity has been shrouded in mystery! You are great on camera and I’m sure all those who read your blog would like a video insert every week as well. I was surprised that you liked my post about finding the perfect sperm donor as it’s not very Christian..although it was tongue in cheek. Great that you have recovered from the anorexia and are writing about it. 🙂

      • Thanks Caroline! So glad you enjoyed the video! Yes! I plan on making a video every week-in addition the to blog, of course! Haha hugs to you friend xox

  56. Hi! I found your blog a few months ago and I’ve enjoyed it since. I remember you were apprehensive about making a video but girl… good on you!!.. You did it and it’s wonderful!! You’re a beautiful young woman.. Im just so happy for you 🙂

  80. Hi Caroline! I’m so excited to “meet” you, though I hope this won’t be weird, but I do feel like we’re friends in a strange way. It is so comforting to come to your blog, read your writing, find strength, encouragement, and wisdom, and to feel like someone really “gets” it in a way that others can’t (not for their lack of good will and love, just because they don’t share the same experiences). Now, I have a face to and voice to put with your words!

    You are so brave to share so much of your genuine self unabashedly with the world. When I read your posts, it encourages me to share more little bits about myself, too. Like my real name (Laura). I’m still working through telling people what I do professionally, and letting my diagnosis be known widely in my professional setting (right now, just my closest work friends know about my ED), but yesterday morning as you were preparing to post your video, I was disclosing my history to a colleague I trust. It’ll be necessary for me to “go public” in order to pursue my next goals, and this was the first step.

    Thank you for blazing the way with your enormous bravery, grace, and faith!!! Sending you so much love!

    And yes, I’ve been on a blind date, and it was SO awkward. And yes, you DO look like Audrey Hepburn! 😄❤️ Xoxo

    Reply

    • Laura! Hello my friend!! Can I just say, I just finished reading your comment only to realize that I had a big smile on my face 🙂 Thank you for this. For the incredible positive words about my blog, and for sharing more about yourself too. “Going public” – you’re right- is super scary, but like you said – it’s a huge first step in doing what comes next. So I applaud you for that, and know that I am cheering for you as you do! You have such a beautiful spirit, and sharing your story with others will only make them love and appreciate your heart even more. Rock on, friend. Sending massive hugs! -Caralyn 😉

      Reply

      • Caralyn! What a beautiful name! I, too, have a smile on my face as I read your comment again. 🙂 You have shared so much and have been so unbelievably vulnerable. You said in your video that maybe you had been a bit “irresponsible” about what you had shared online, but maybe love and vulnerability are always a bit “irresponsible.” God, after all, radiates his love upon all of us, regardless of our “worthiness,” even forgiving the worst of our sins. Isn’t that a bit irresponsible? Yet, it is also one of the most encouraging and hopeful examples that keeps me going when I want to withdraw into myself. I am working up the courage to send you an email. Maybe I’m not quite ready to tell the whole world everything about myself, but I would like for you to know me a little better, if that’s ok.

      • Laura, oh my gosh that is such a beautiful image to reflect on: Jesus radiating his love regardless of our “worthiness.” Holy Camoley that is so powerful. And true!! Absolutely. I would be honored if you did! ❤️❤️big hugs to you Laura! Have a beautiful day Xoxox

  82. How nice to see and hear the young lady whose words I’ve been reading all this time! Caroline, eh? Well, hello, Caroline! I will probably think of you as “Beauty” first, though. I’m sure this was pretty scary. I’ve had times when I debated on whether I should hit that “Send” button. Once I did, there was that cold pit in my stomach that knew if I’d just made a mistake, it was gonna be HUGE!

    You didn’t make a mistake, though. The best part – for me – was in the middle; genuine, warm…the Beauty I’ve come to know. Thinking about it now, I see BBB morphing and becoming more under the same title. You’ve just started showing us the Beauty who has made her way beyond being “Bones.” *Insert Star Trek joke here* From here on out, it’ll be how beauty has pervaded your life. You have passed the veil, if you will, and are fulfilling the destiny inherent in your title.

    So keep bringing it, Beau…, um, Caroline. It’ll be fun!

  84. You’re so quirky, sweet, sincere, and weird😘
    Let’s be honest though, the weird ones have the most fun! Thank you for trusting this community enough to take that final step of coming out to us- physically.
    You’re right, it did feel kind of like a blind date (I’ve never been on one either…which makes me sound like I have).
    Anywho, I think there’s an important lesson in your journey: you gave us the opportunity to love you for your spirit before we encountered you physically. It’s smart too, because now we’re more invested in you.

    Sharing your vulnerabilities, concerns, mistakes, beliefs, happiness, and recovery has reminded us all of what life is really about- simply being human toward one another.
    I’m rambling now, so I’m going to stop. But great to meet you Caroline, and please continue to do great things! ☺😘💃💪

    • Hey Celestial! haha YES! The weird ones DO have the most fun! haha seriously though, thank you for your wonderfully kind comment.

  85. I am so proud of you! I was traveling yesterday (actually to a Basilica about 90 miles away from me) and found myself lifting you up in prayer during the drive & again once I arrived to the Church. I’d remembered it was your ‘reveal’ day and simply asked that you be surrounded by His comfort and peace.

    Watching the video myself (today) the Scripture passage from Luke 17 leapt in my heart! This was where Jesus healed the 10 lepers; and yet only one returned to give thanks. For me that’s what you did in your video…you gave thanks! Thanks to God and to us as you showed each of us, who have grown to know you and love you for the heart you have broken open,….that this is the healed ME. Thank you for the bravery to do so and thank you for reminding each of us that we are all called to be the ONE who returns to give ‘thanks.’
    HUGS n’ blessings!

  87. Good for you! I only just discovered your blog and am already envious of your strength. I run an anonymous blog and perhaps never will let anyone I know personally that I even have one. I write to basically understand all the thoughts and feelings that don’t get shared with anyone else. All the raw and exposed stuff that used to keep me up at night, the stuff that breaks relationships, friendships, and family. I’ve discovered an entire community of people all at different places in their lives using their writing as a form of self-help. It’s amazing and empowering. Thank you for sharing your strength as it has provided me some inspiration.

    • Thanks friend! Thank you for sharing this. There’s something really healing about processing life through writing. Even if it stays anonymous, just the fact that you’re writing is so powerful. And empowering yes. So glad it resonated with you. Big big hugs xox

  90. Sometimes, I am reminded of Max Lucados words.
    Life turns every person upside down. No one escapes unscathed. Not the woman who discovers her husband is in an affair. Not the teenager who discovers a night of romance has resulted in a surprise pregnancy.

    We’d be foolish to think we’re invulnerable. But we’d be just as foolish to think evil wins the day. The Bible vibrates with the steady drumbeat of faith; God recycles evil into righteousness.

    I don’t have an easy solution or magic wand. But I have found something—or Someone—far better. God Himself. When God gets in the middle of life, evil becomes good. Trust God. No, really trust Him! He will get you through this. Will it be easy or quick? I hope so. But it seldom is. Yet God will make good out of this mess. That’s His job.

    I am also reminded every person is either about to have a crisis, is in the middle of a crisis or is just getting out of a crisis. Knowing this, how much are we willing to let a crisis burden us? We all have different dynamics; however, a willingness to face those dynamics and a willingness to face them head on with great attitude which helps us defeat the demons, so to speak, makes all the difference and is the smart thing to do. Sometimes, it helps to ponder. Don’t analyze. Keep up the good work.

  107. I was at my darkest hour and still am. But seeing your “Coming out” video provided a spark. I love how you reach out to people and have found a way to save yourself through God. I hope one day I’ll get there. Thank you, Carolyn.
