Nicole's Story: Coming Home to Her Body


Listen Later

If you’ve tried everything to control your food, and still feel stuck... this is for you.Nicole Lilly is one of the courageous few who was willing to do something radically different. After a lifetime of struggling with her food and her body, Nicole joined Mastering Mindfulness™ to go deeper than doing another diet program. And it changed everything. Nicole opens up about her journey from feeling hopeless and stuck in cycles of dieting and losing control with food to discovering her own inner power and how to finally feel at home in her own body. We talk about:

  • Why trying to control your eating never creates real freedom, and what actually does
  • How to stop using food to cope with every emotion, whether it’s stress, loneliness, or even joy
  • What it feels like to go from living in your head to feeling safe and at home in your body
  • How to move from sabotaging yourself to stepping into self leadership
  • Simple practices you can start using right now to build more trust and compassion with yourself
