EP 21: Bulimia, Body Image, & Building Bodies
In this solo episode of the Nomad CEO Podcast, I’m sharing my full health journey — the messy, obsessive, painful, & redemptive parts of it.
I grew up finding comfort in food, struggled with body image from a young age, & eventually fell into a binge-purge cycle & exercise addiction in college. At 19, I walked into my first 12-step meeting. Years later, I was diagnosed with bulimia. That diagnosis didn’t define me — it gave me a path forward.
Here’s what I’ve learned after 13 years as a trainer & nutrition coach working with over 1,000 clients:
In This Episode, I Share:
- How my childhood shaped my relationship with food
- The performance-driven identity that fueled my eating disorder
- The moment I decided I wasn’t going to let my health control my life
- How I rebuilt self-trust with simple daily habits
- Why health is a three-legged stool: mental, physical, & relational
- How to stop being a victim to your body & start becoming a lifelong learner
My belief is simple: health is the foundation that fuels your ambition.
My goal is to help you build a body that keeps up with the life you’re called to lead.
I also share more about my 8-month program, Earn Your Edge, & why this next season of the podcast will include more honest conversations about health.
