I'm so thrilled to have Elizabeth Sterling (@TheWholePointe) join me today as she shares her story. Listen as we walk through her experience as a professional ballerina and the damaging comments that led her to disordered eating. She now coaches her students to embrace their body rather than work against them. Elizabeth is an advocate for intuitive eating, intuitive movement, and utilizing a mindset that is FOR you rather than AGAINST you (my kind of gal).
