20. Body Image, Diet Culture, and Female Athletics | Bethany Hamilton

Listen Later

Bethany Hamilton is a professional surfer who was born & raised in Hawai'i, and she resides there now with her husband and three sons. After losing her entire left arm in a shark attack as a young teenager, Bethany shocked the world by not only continuing her surf career, but taking down world champions along the way. Outside of her surf career, Bethany developed a passion for health in her teenage years, and that has evolved over time through her own personal wellness journey, which has included diving into the world of metabolic health & healing! 

Join us as we sit down & discuss the following:

  • Bethany's story & health journey
  • Bethany's intro to metabolic health
  • Diet culture & food fear
  • Body image & comparison
  • Body consciousness in athletics
  • How athletes can succumb to under-eating
  • The outside doesn't always reflect internal health
  • Simply eating enough can radicalize your energy levels
  • How Bethany's wellness has transformed after focusing on her metabolism
  • Eating organic, real food wasn't enough for Bethany- she needed bioavailable nutrition
  • Nutrients should come from food first
  • Healing is a constant journey
  • Being grateful for your body now while covering yourself with grace
  • How Bethany is more resilient now than ever
