Published: Mon May 01 2023
Description
Let's take a deep dive into my health and fitness journey from where I started to where I am at now. It may come as a surprise, but I too did start from SQUARE ONE! I used to have the worst gym anxiety and had the hardest time transitioning from playing sports my whole life to having to figure it out on my own. We will be chatting about all the highs and lows in my journey that hopefully some of you can relate to. I do want to warn you that we will be chatting about disordered eating habits, body dysmorphia, and an unhealthy relationship with food and movement. If that is not something you want to hear or are not ready to hear yet, no worries bestie - meet me back here next week!
