I am so incredibly honoured to share another episode in the transformation series with my client Leanne.

Leanne is a mom, fiance, and self-proclaimed stand-up comedian who struggled with being the "fat kid" as a child, and fighting against being the "fat friend" throughout adulthood.

At 46 years old, Leanne shares how through the Food Freedom Approach, she's been able to learn to love herself in the most genuine way - no measurements attached.

In the episode, we chat about

If Leanne's story speaks to you, I would love to chat about how your life can transform by working with me!

Welcome back to the show!! We've had a bit of a hiatus but I'm so excited to be behind the mic again with a very real, raw, and vulnerable episode.

I recently had the incredible opportunity to attend, and present at, Inspire and Awaken - a 2 day wellness summit that was themed "Embracing Authenticity".

This event has impacted me in SO many ways - some of which I share in today's episode. But it has also inspired me to be seen.

In the episode, we chat about:

Also mentioned in the episode:

Ally Stone

The Inspired Leader

Episode #43

This one is really juicy (and really real) so buckle up! Also, TW for those who may be really struggling with food as I do share some intimate parts of my ED journey.

Can you relate:

You're constantly thinking about what you're going to eat, how much, at what time, whether or not it's the "right" thing, too much, how it's going to impact your weight.

You're always doing math in your head about how many calories, carbs, protein, etc. is in your food.

You feel bad if you eat "junk food" and immediately go to work planning how you'll get back "on track"

The list of food noise experiences goes on. But these are a few of the most common.

Food noise is no stranger in my life, and it's taken me time and lots of intention to quiet it, but I want you to know that it is possible to not have food run the show.

Today's episode is one that has been on my heart to share for awhile. As the story continues to unfold, it's felt more and more challenging to sit down and record, because it feels like there is so much to share.

Those of you who follow me on socials have probably seen bits a pieces of my journey over the last 6 months going through the process of potentially getting diagnosed with MS (multiple sclerosis). In today's episode, I share all the behind the scenes with you, as well as the experiences of body grief that have accompanied my body changing.

We chat about:

If you haven't already listened to the episode with Brianna Campos on body grief, I would strongly recommend circling back to it at some point. Listen here.

You can follow her on instagram @bodyimagewithbri

As mentioned in the episode, if you are struggling with experiences of body grief, or your relationship with food, I would love to support you.

Today's conversation might feel a bit heavy for some of you, but gosh it needs to be had.

I can count on one hand the number of women I know who would say they don't struggle with their weight, or their body image in some capacity and this episode is going to dive into the WHY, as well as offer you a new perspective.

We chat about:

The episode was inspired by a post I saw recently by another creator, Chrissy King. You can find the original post in conversation ⁠here⁠

If what you hear today resonates with you, I would love for you to share, leave and review and reach out to let me know you're tuning in!

As always, if you are struggling with your body image and your relationship with food, I would love to work with you! You can apply for coaching here

Jaime Morgan joins me today to share about a new layer of healing untouched on the LYN podcast - healing from the loss of interpersonal romantic relationships.

Jaime and I met at a networking event where we connected over our histories of struggling with food. I was so curious to hear more about her line of work, and how certain challenges (particularly control) manifest in both romantic relationships and relationships with food.

We chat about:

So often we think of our relationships with others as independent from our relationships with ourselves, but the healing goes hand-in-hand and looks very similar so for those of you on any healing journey - body image, food, self-love, divorce, etc. - this episode will feel like such a warm hug!
