What if self-care isn’t bubble baths, rest days, or comfort—but structure, commitment, and self-discipline?

In this powerful episode of Evolve Healthcare, Christina Williams—author, trauma-informed life coach, executive strategist, and IFBB Pro—shares her deeply personal journey from pain to power. After experiencing trauma, emotional abandonment, and internal chaos, Christina discovered that discipline was the ultimate act of self-love—the anchor that helped her rebuild, redefine herself, and rise.

Through raw stories and grounded coaching insight, Christina reveals:

✅ Why discipline is more healing than motivation

✅ How to build consistency when life feels chaotic

✅ Why motivation can be misleading without a structure

✅ How trauma shapes our habits and how to break the cycle

✅ The real work behind emotional recovery and transformation

✅ How coaching, boundaries, and mindset tools saved her life

 

This isn’t a feel-good chat—it’s a real-life masterclass on healing with accountability. Christina speaks candidly about the hard truth that no one is coming to save you, and why learning to show up for yourself—especially on the hard days—is where true healing begins.

 

If you're on a journey to reinvent yourself, fight through trauma, or get out of your own way, this episode is your wake-up call.
