311. From 13 Years of Chronic Fatigue to Strong, Fit & Healthy (22 lbs Weight Loss!) With Amanda Boyd

Today’s episode is a very special and near and dear to my heart.
My guest Amanda and I met in group coaching for people experiencing Mindbody symptoms – also know as TMS. This is a condition where pain or other chronic symptoms are not caused by physical problem but they originate from a heightened nervous system and stressed brain.

Amanda experienced a variety of symptoms, from different pains to double vision to chronic fatigue. They took 13 years of her life and at times she was bedridden, unable to leave her house.

During these times, she felt helpless and hopeless, but she kept searching for solutions. Until one day she came across the concept of MindBody syndrome or TMS, and this is where her recovery started. There was NEVER anything wrong with her physical body.

In this interview, you learn:

– The story of her mysterious symptoms and fatigue
– How she learned about TMS and started using the MindBody tools to overcome her symptoms
– When she started to feel better, she started eating a lot more — and gained weight
– How she got started with strength training and signed up for nutrition coaching with me
– The amazing results she has seen — not only physically but also (and perhaps more importantly!) mentally.

Her transformation has been truly amazing and I could not be happier for her. Amanda’s story is also a great testament to the fact that strength training is an incredible empowerment building tool for sensitive people!
