This episode is living proof that full recovery is possible—even without coaching or therapy. Michelle bravely shares how she fully healed her relationship with food and body using only podcast support… and a fierce decision to choose freedom.
We talk about:
✨ Her journey from subtle body checking and dieting to full food freedom
✨ The turning point where she decided “enough is enough”
✨ What it felt like to face weight gain, shame, and body image triggers—without turning back
✨ How she learned to trust her body again (and the fears she had to walk through daily)
✨ The unexpected freedom of not giving a f*ck about the number on the scale
✨ Why “just eating” feels so revolutionary in a world that praises restriction
Michelle’s story is deeply validating for anyone who thinks they’re “not sick enough” or feels like recovery is only possible with 1:1 support. This conversation is a gentle but powerful reminder: you are not broken, you are not alone, and you are absolutely capable of full freedom.
