0:07.6	I spent 10 years stuck in the diet binge cycles hating my body and envying women who seem to have it all because I never felt enough.
0:15.9	And what I discovered in my journey to food freedom, radical self-love, and becoming an eating psychology coach is this.
0:22.5	You can either live your life at war with your mind or learn to work in sync with it.
0:27.8	And that is what this podcast is all about.
0:31.0	We get real, we get raw, and we hold nothing back.
0:35.6	So if you're ready to learn how to work in sync with your mind and
0:38.7	evolve your life, welcome to the show.
