Welcome. I’m so happy you’re here!
My name is Breanna, but I go by Bre most of the time. I’m an average 18 year old girl, born and raised in a small town in Colorado. Living life the best way I know how; making mistakes and learning from them. I started writing on my school computer in 6th grade, since then writing has become a huge part of my life.
I knew early on there has to be more to life than societal expectation’s.
Just Bee started as a way to express the creativity invested in me that I’ve been diminishing so long. In 2023 I graduated high school and felt the pressure of going to college. With my grades and behavior, colleges weren’t knocking on my door with acceptance letters. I knew there had to be more to utilizing your younger years than working and studying so, maybe in 40 years you can enjoy retirement.
Though I was stuck, continuing my education in some capacity felt necessary-being I had missed out on basically two years of school already. My interests didn’t seem to fit together to create my dream job. How could I choose just one for the rest of my life? Short answer- I couldn’t. Figuring out a way to not only showcase all the passions I have, but helping people love themselves more was what I wanted to do with my life was hard. Just Bee might be the solution.

Expressing myself has always been a challenge. Never believing in myself enough to take action. After I graduated, it was hard seeing everyone go off to college or other education. I was stuck at home with no friends and little social interaction. I missed having a community-people to connect with and working towards a goal. Never once did I imagine myself being vulnerable on the internet. Although it was just what I need to skyrocket into becoming the person I dreamed of being.
I am currently living out my childhood, but my younger years were tough. Many of my days consisted of having lots of alone time with my thoughts. Writing has always been my escape, it allowed me to have control. It gave me peace taking ownership over my life on paper.
My mental health journey really began in 2022. I had just failed my junior year of high school and knew changing was my only option. Believing in myself and an amazing therapist has allowed me to become someone I only dreamed of being. If I was able to transform my state of mind, you can too. I believe in you.
What I hope to achieve with Just Bee is to shine a small light in someones darkness. Whether it’s helping someone see their worth or catapulting a person’s self love journey. Also, I just want to talk about the things I’m passionate about. I want to show people there’s always, always hope. You are so much more capable than your mind tells you.
