In this episode, I’m bringing on a special guest, Christine, who’s been a powerhouse in her own transformation journey inside the Academy. From battling binge eating to embracing her intuition, boundaries, and self-love, Christine went from struggling with obsessing over what she was eating, using food for comfort when emotions hit to becoming empowered, grounded, and fully committed to a life where she is in the driver seat, not food.

Christine shares her journey of going from the membership to the Academy, where she gained not only control over her relationship with food but also deeper insights into herself. This journey wasn’t just about food, it’s been about learning to listen to her body, set boundaries, and show up for herself in every area of her life. We talk about how she was able to normalize foods she once binged on (she had dried mangos in her pantry for 8 months and completely forgot that they were even there) and how she built a sustainable lifestyle that feels effortless and empowering.

Key Takeaways:

  • How committing to long-term growth leads to lasting transformation in your relationship with food.
  • The power of trusting your intuition to make decisions that align with your true self.
  • Why setting boundaries is key to emotional freedom and overcoming self-destructive behaviuors.
  • How food becomes effortless when you stop seeing it as “good” or “bad” and instead tune into what your body needs.
  • Real-life stories of how Christine was able to move beyond binge eating and become the confident, grounded woman she is today. She says "the best project I'll ever work on is myself"
