<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1291646/open_sms">Send us a text</a>This CWC podcast is devoted to my experience participating in a fitness competition, the mental side effects I experienced after competing, and their lingering effects. The world of competitive fitness can be dark and leave lasting scars, so grab some popcorn and a cocktail as I spill the dirty details of my experience, my darkest moments, and how I still battle those demons today. While my experience is limited to this one competition, I know that I’ll never again put myself in a position to be judged by people I don’t know, and let them tell me I’m not good enough. I advise against competing if you have any issues surrounding food or body image.

Join me as I candidly discuss all aspects of the “fitness” industry, my journey to food freedom, my struggles with breast implant illness, OCD, and more. I have open and honest dialogues with healthcare professionals, entrepreneurs, mentors, celebrities, bestsellers, polyamorists, coaches, and some of my personal heroes!&nbsp;CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE!
