You don’t need a cheat (code, meal or day!)
FOR MY ASPIRING BAD-ASSES, PLEASE KNOW:
‘Cause even though I knew EXACTLY what to do, I just couldn’t stop eating, stuffing my face until I felt like my stomach was gonna pop.
And, worse, I rationalized my binge-eating with the all too common “last supper” mindset, tricking myself into believing I could eat all the bad food TODAY and swore I'd get my shit together tomorrow.
I (usually) did and tapped that restart button by purging out my failures, restricting myself harder, and then white-knuckling it to lose the weight I’d gained when I’d lost control.
I found myself trapped in an all-or-nothing mentality that had me obsessing over food 24/7. The shame was real. I was a fitness coach, ffs. How had this happened to me?
your story to be told
I made four small but powerful shifts:
I stopped obsessing about “weight loss” and focused on healing my relationship with food (yo, there are no bad foods!)
I quit spending so much time on the scale and started taking progress photos instead.
I swapped my restart button and “all or nothing” thinking with self compassion and taking things moment at a time.
And I FINALLY gave my mental health the love, care and attention it deserved.
Today, I’m exactly where I want to be:
Happy, leaner, confident and free.
Fam, I battled this cycle for a loooong time.
And it is SO important to me to provide a safe, nourishing space for other humans to bravely heal, grow and transform … without suffering in silence or feeling the pain of eating issues and starving body confidence like I did.
Then one day,
I got sick of
The bS stories I was feeding myself.
Instead of
embracing balance...

Health is wealth and growth is forever.
I BELIEVE…
Ready to do the inner work, push their limits, ditch the short-term fixes to help – and heal – themselves holistically for the long-term.
MY friendos ARE the PEEPs…
Was going to be a psychologist after college. The Universe must’ve had other plans, ‘cause now my skills help humans work their struggles with habit-based coaching that creates real and lasting behavior change. (& I love it!)
