Balance.
Course correct.
Return to normal.
Middle ground.
I want to help you find these, that’s what I’m here for.
I know exactly how you feel if you’re currently completely depleted from 2x day workouts, cutting your calories to your bare basal metabolic rate (that's never a good idea!), weighing your lettuce and beating yourself up no matter what you do.
After recovering from over 10 years of very hard training and 5-7 years bouncing between (undiagnosed) anorexia & binge eating and also Hypothalamic Amenorrhea (loss of period due to overtraining and under eating), I want to tell you that there is hope and you can stop this madness.
We simply have to course correct if we've gone too far to the extreme. I want to pull you back from extremes and show you how easy life can be once we return to normal:
👉Eat in a way that supports you and that you enjoy
👉Work out in moderation, doing just enough but not too much exercise
👉Have positive mindset and 100% body respect, regardless of where you are on the journey
👉Realize what an AMAZING badass you truly are. Seriously, open your eyes!! Everyone else sees it!
You may think that I'm just another body-positive-food-freedom coach. True, I am all that, but here’s what’s different about me: I am TRULY about that middle ground, I don’t accept shaming anyone’s goals or put anyone down for what they currently do. Here’s what I mean by that:
💠While I don’t coach weight loss and don’t even weigh myself, I don’t shame those who have a weight loss goal. In other words, there are WAY more important markers of our health, but do I believe that some people benefit from weight loss and if they want to do it for physique change I’m fine as long as their health is fine. I find body shaming unacceptable either way, whether the target is a skinny person or a fat person.
💠While I won’t you kill you with hardcore exercise to get those🔥abs, I do want you to move. Movement is healthy when it's done in a healthy way. Fitness shouldn’t be your LIFE, but let's also not call people who prioritize fitness, obsessed, without knowing much else about them. I love fitness and been doing some form of it since I 9 years old. Of course, there were times when I severely overdid it. But that's not the fault of fitness. That's on me. I was the one who used fitness the wrong way.
I understand why many former over-exercisers and those who struggled with obsessive eating hate even the word “exercise”. I also try to understand why they believe that all weight loss is always bad, but that’s not me personally. To me, a healthy, balanced body and mind is the ultimate goal. And that goal is achieved via smart exercise, balanced eating, and a whole lot of positivity.
These are the exact things I want to help you with. I had to get it off the chest and I am interested to hear your thoughts on this topic.
