I had a fantastic conversation with professional athlete Rachel Johnson all the way from Virginia in the US. Whilst competing to a high level, Rachel struggled with disordered eating, and she is bravely open about her process towards healing her relationship with food, and learning the importance of nourishing the body for performance and lifestyle. We also reflect on how life in lockdown has shifted our outlooks on our individual motivations and passions, whilst also allowing for universal connection. It was amazing to speak to someone who has utilised their past challenges to aid and encourage others in the present, which Rachel is demonstrating whilst coaching younger athletes at Liberty University. We really hope you enjoy!

*Disclaimer: We speak about disordered eating and body weight/image in this episode. This is to caution anyone who may find this triggering or upsetting. Remember you are not alone, and sending you tons of loving vibes.
