215: A Healthy Weight isn’t Just Your Birthright, It’s Your Calling

At 39, I had the perfect life, and I was on top of the world.  I was the FBI’s Chief of Staff for the Counterintelligence Program Office. I had just “retired” from competitive mountain bike racing, and I was athletic, I had a smokin' bod, and I felt unstoppable. I had moved in with my Green Beret fiancé and soon-to-be stepson. And, then...everything changed and the weight of it all came crashing down on my body.I thought, when I lose this weight, then I’ll be happy, and then I can pick my life back up. But I had become a Certified Holistic Health Coach, had 4 different certifications in health, nutrition, and metabolic health under my belt, and still couldn’t control myself around food.In today's episode, you're going to learn how I cracked the code and didn’t just get back to the healthy weight that I used to be when I was a competitive mountain bike racer; I completely obliterated the cravings and the emotional eating. Together, we will investigate:The story I’ve never fully told… about how I went from peak performance to completely losing myself.What it’s really like to look like you have it all together but still feel completely out of control with food.The uncomfortable truth about why “being overweight” feels normal, but isn’t.Why losing weight won’t fix your life, and what actually does.The identity shift that finally breaks emotional eating (and why no diet can touch it).How being out of integrity with yourself shows up in your eating.[SUBSTACK] Subscribe here▶️ https://substack.com/@hollybertoneConnect with Holly:▶️ GET ON THE PRIORITY LIST TO BECOME A SUSTAINABLE WEIGHT LOSS MACHINE - https://academy.pinkfortitude.com/pl-machine-reg▶️ FREE EMOTIONAL EATING PSYCHOLOGICAL PROFILE - https://pinkfortitude.mykajabi.com/weight-quiz▶️ JOIN THE BREAK EMOTIONAL EATING ACCELERATOR - https://academy.pinkfortitude.com/break-emotional-eating-accelerator▶️ APPLY FOR ELITE-LEVEL PRIVATE COACHING WITH HOLLY - https://wkf.ms/3XtDIKV▶️QUIT SUGAR IN 5 DAYS - https://academy.pinkfortitude.com/register-for-sugar▶️ SUBSCRIBE TO SUBSTACK - https://substack.com/@hollybertone▶️ FOLLOW HOLLY BERTONE ON INSTAGRAM - @holly.bertone If this is your vibe, be sure to hit the follow button where you are listening and also tap those 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ and leave a great review.
