Hannah candidly shared her experiences with her brother, in her November 2021 memoir. She will be including prompts in her journal that will help her readers, such as a passage about family dynamics.
“You can love your family and still know that there are things that can be triggering,” the former Miss Alabama told Use. “Because we love our family, we’re not gonna say anything. Or like you said, ‘You can’t choose your family,’ but the way that we grow up is so pivotal to these patterns that we find ourselves in. [It can be helpful] if you could write in words, what your relationship is like with your mom or was like with your mom or your dad or your siblings, and then you can connect the dots of some of the patterns that you might have in your life.”

“The more I have gone to therapy, the more I’ve realized when I go back home, like, there’s this anxiety that I don’t understand why it’s creeping up. Like, it’s not that I don’t love my family, but in every family, things can be triggering or upsetting,” Hannah continued. “[To]It’s really helpful to be able create a boundary with your family in order to be able communicate better instead of building up walls. And, of course, I wanted to put that in my journal because you can’t choose who your family is and what you are born into, but you can choose how to communicate and the boundaries you set and how you love one another and how you show up in your family.”
Hannah, who is currently dating boyfriend Adam Woolard for over one year, concluded: “I hope that those pages in the journal can really help because we all have issues. Most of us all have some type of dysfunction in our family and that’s what makes us all unique and it’s something that can also be celebrated as well.”
