🚨BIG UPDATE ON THIS PODCAST🚨

Louise has been on a long journey to recovery. Now in her 40's, she is not going back, she is going forward.

In fact, after she got done recording this episode, she boldly followed through on a challenge and dropped a pair of smaller jeans she was struggling to let go of in the trash bin.

Louise wrote, "Tuesday was my Birthday and I decided to throw away one of my clothing items that I was holding on to. These were my favorite jeans for many many years. But they no longer fit so instead of keeping me trapped I’m letting them go to make room for a new favorite pair of jeans. Let the shopping begin!"

In This Episode:

Body Grief and Size Changes:
Louise opens up about how acknowledging body grief helped her with the fear and anxiety that came up when she noticed the sizes of her clothing getting smaller.

Finding Joy in Spontaneity: Louise shares her experiences of letting go of restrictive habits, allowing herself to fully embrace social activities like dancing, dating, and even simply enjoying holidays without overthinking about food. This shift has not only brought her joy but also a renewed sense of self.

Community and Personal Growth: The community support and challenges inside of the Courage Club has been a cornerstone of food and body image breakthroughs for Louise. It has been her safe container to confront discomfort,  develop self-compassionm and make real change
