An anxiety disorder doesn’t make life easy so discovering something you love and using it to combat your everyday struggles is well worth it. Since Elizabeth started rowing, she's been able to use her anxiety to fuel her hard work in the sport, and rowing to fuel her mental health journey. As Elizabeth has dealt with her anxiety over the years as an expat, it’s become a part of her identity, a part of who she is. Through her struggles of being a new kid, moving, and being a teenager, she’s learned how to work with her anxiety and row down her mental health journey.
