In 2018 I took a 3 month break from exercise. 

 

No lifting. 

 

No cardio. 

 

I didn’t even go for walks unless I GENUINELY wanted to (which I didn’t in the beginning).

 

This was part of healing from the previous 4 years of under-eating and overexercise…

 

…which led me to lose my period, struggle with massive binge eating episodes at least once per week, and feel controlled by my obsession with food.

 

Now, 6 years later?

 

I’m about to compete in my first Crossfit competition. 

 

I train HARD and often, and I’ve even done some two-a-days in preparation.

 

I fucking love it.

 

And I continue to maintain a healthy period and a peaceful relationship with food.

 

So how does this apply to you?

 

I want to share with you how I got here - all the way from my exercise break to pushing my body hard again.

 

Because I know, if you’re anything like me or my clients, you LOVE fitness.

 

You love the feeling of pushing your limits and showing yourself what you’re capable of physically, you love the confidence that this brings…

 

…and you’re ready to get more fit than you’ve ever been but this time WITH freedom and peace around food.

 

So in this episode I’m doing just that.

 

Hope you enjoy it!

 

I’d love to hear your feedback or follow up questions.
