Day 2 of Fat Loss 101: The Emotional Weight You Carry is Making the Physical Weight Stay On
I’m opening up about something most people don’t talk about when it comes to fat loss: the emotional weight that keeps you from releasing the physical weight.
I’m sharing my own story of grief, trauma, and rebuilding after divorce — and how healing my emotions completely changed my body, my energy, and the way I see myself. We’ll talk about how emotional stress impacts your metabolism, what really happens in your body when you’re stuck in survival mode, and how to start creating safety again so your body can finally let go.
This one’s close to my heart. It’s raw, it’s honest, and it’s all about learning to give yourself grace while doing the work.
