Taking to TikTok to celebrate the release of her third record on Friday (April 8), Cabello started by exclaiming “Wowzer! ‘Familia’ is finally out,” before admitting that “this album means so much to me.“
“The journey to making it completely changed (me) and, not to be dramatic, saved my life,” she added. “Y’know, I started this album at a really shitty mental health point and the process of making it, and being vulnerable and being honest about my experiences and leaning on other people changed my life.”
Previously, Cabello had told NME she was “the most emo person ever” and explained how “I have to really be mindful of my mental health and do a lot of meditation and read positive affirmations and read inspiring things. I have to check on myself – like, ‘ugh, I feel really negative’, or, ‘Ugh, I feel really like I’m not being kind to myself today’. I think you have to be really aware of what your thoughts are because it affects everything.”
