Award-winning cross-fit trainer and former Mr USIU Shiv Simani opened up about his mental health battle over the last six months.
This he shared as he got candid with his fans on Instagram where he revealed battling self-doubt, depression and even imposter syndrome which has barred him from engaging in his regular workout schedule.
“Only a few of you may know this but the past 6 months have been some of the toughest I have ever had in a mental and emotional capacity. I have gone through all of it! Self-doubt, imposter syndrome, depression…you name it. I even took a 5-week break from working out (longest to date in 8 years),” Shiv wrote.
The father of two said he is striving to get through every day at the moment and is positive and ready for the next chapters.
“I’m not completely out of the woods yet but I’m feeling positive, most amazing and ready to take on the next chapters. Let’s go!” he wrote in conclusion.
Shiv is a father of two daughters with his long time fiancee Miss Tiramisu who is a content creator and member of Over 25 Youtube channel.
He is currently working with Mr and Miss Kenya brand as a runway trainer.
