43. SKINNY-FAT SERIES: Increasing my calories - What is was REALLY like navigating this difficult journey psychologically

This episode is a little vulnerable, as I share my own story of increasing my calories. Why vulnerable? Well, I lived the first 25 years of my life believing that eating more meant gaining weight, and that gaining weight meant that I would gain weight/look fat.  I was so afraid of increasing my calories, and so afraid of what would happen if I did. I know for a fact that there are still so many women that believe this, too. I mean, it's what I coach women through daily. So in this episode I want to share a behind the scenes look into my own journey of increasing my calories, all my struggles along the way, and what it was really like for me during that time, so that you can understand that you’re not crazy for thinking the way you are, that there are ABSOLUTELY other women going through it as well, and that we need to normalise that THIS IS FUCKING HARD. By the end of this podcast, through my story I will bring into awareness some things that you might be struggling with, and beliefs you might be operating from, that you might not be aware of yet, and I'll give some tangible tips for you to implement to begin to re-wire these beliefs for yourself.   P.S.
