31: My story from rock bottom to heart-led-living: How perfectionism, disordered eating, and mental/physical health issues almost took my life and how I came back home to myself

39 minutes

This is a big episode. I finally feel ready to open up and share the vulnerable and intimate details of my own story. People and clients often ask me how I got into the world of health and wellness, coaching, nervous system regulation, food freedom, and mental health…and it’s all because of my own personal evolution. I live and breathe everything I share about on my podcast because it truly changed my life. Listen to this episode to learn how I went from rock bottom (severe mental health challenges and physical health struggles) to thriving and feeling so in love with life! I hope this heart-to-heart conversation can inspire someone out there to shift their own life and choose recovery.
