Trapped in Diet Prison for 4 Decades: How This Therapist Found Freedom at 54 (Outweigh)
Listen now
Description
OUTWEIGH: Susan had been living in a 40-year food and diet prison, and she didn't know how to get out. Diets eluded her, and even though she had hope that there was a better way to go about her relationship with food, her body, and her health, she was almost at that point that she felt helpless. Food and her body was a topic that carried a lot of shame and guilt. And she had almost completely convinced herself that this was "just the way things were going to be". Her relationship with herself and those around her was suffering which added another level of guilt caused by not showing up as the woman, wife, mom, and therapist that she knew wanted to be. Feeling she had tried everything under the sun, Susan scheduled a call with me and took a leap of faith to finally commit to herself. Accepting that the road to peace, love and happiness with herself was a long term game, she began taking steps toward healing her body & mind and reclaiming her life-- not committing to another diet. And as you'll learn, it's never too late!In this interview she shares how her 54-year old therapist self got her life back, took back her power, and broke free from a 40-year food and dieting PRISON!
