Malaysia Pargo just dropped one raw and real post that hasn’t been seen in a long time and had a different impact on me. The reality star opened up about her continuing sadness, loss, and mourning while honoring her mother’s memory in her Instagram message, which has become a worthy Insta-worthy moment.

What she went on to say was that most mornings lately she just would wake up sad. But rather than give herself a pity party of sorts, she would hear her mom telling her, “Get up, pull through it! You’ve got this! Get up and be my superstar!” How encouraging of a mother! In the video, Malaysia is doing some intense workouts while the lyrics about metamorphosis and fame play, which seem to symbolize everything she’s going through.
Malaysia went beyond sharing her story: she gave hope to those suffering from loss. “To anyone going through the loss of a loved one, I just want to remind you: get up and move. Take a walk, find a class you love, but don’t stay in bed. You are stronger than you think, and every step forward is a step towards healing.”
What’s big for her right now is exercise. She thanked her trainers, @mstischh and @tischtoschtraining, calling gym training her favorite thing “helping to guide me on this journey.” That totally makes sense: sometimes when you are experimenting with powerful verbal emotions, moving your body is the only thing that seems logical. You can read more about her fitness journey in this fascinating feature.
Let’s now talk about the reaction because, wow! The comment section turned into a beautiful support group with people sharing their little stories and struggles.
Those words really hit home for one comment that read: “You are amazing Malaysia dealing with a tragic loss is not easy but you are pulling through every day.” And that’s the thing. She’s not pretending to be over it or completely healed yet. She’s showing the real, messy process of grief.
Another one has stood out coming from someone who’s literally going through recovery themselves: “I’m next soon as my hip replacement heal.” Isn’t that powerful? Malaysia’s message is reaching all sorts of people in instances of the world, similar to how her recent post on nostalgia touched hearts.
But that one might be the most relatable: “Getting out of bed and just getting started is the hardest part.” Isn’t that true for anyone who’s ever dealt with depression or grief? That first step out of bed feels like moving mountains sometimes.
The person who then immediately acted upon it said, “Damn I needed this. Been working out and got sick. Feeling slightly better but didn’t want to get back to it. Getting up right now lol.” See? Her message is really instigating actual change.
What is even more remarkable is how many people commented that she is going through her own loss but pouring into others as well. One comment put it best: “You are dealing with loss but still taking time to pour into others.” That’s strength on another level.
She’s always been transparent about herself, but this one feels different. More vulnerable. More real. She’s not just posting random workout videos; this is her healing journey, and she is making space for other people to walk alongside her. You can see how she chooses to celebrate her sister’s birthday with a heartfelt tribute, showcasing her close relationships.
That alone serves as another reminder that celebrities get to experience everyone’s human experience. Grief knows nothing about having an Insta-following count or how many reality shows you have been a contestant on. The hits are the same for everyone.
Here’s the really smart bit: by Malaysia sharing, she is forging permanent healing from her personal pain. Those comments demonstrate that the people are not just watching her story, but others see themselves in those comments and gain the courage to face their own trials.
In a world where the fake and the curated are common aspects of social media, this bit of raw and honest is a breath of fresh air. It’s messy. It’s raw. It’s healing. We need more of that kind.
