Breaking Up with Booze & Diets: Emma Gilmour's Body‑Love Revolution

I'm so thrilled to bring you this special episode of The Celebrate a Sister Podcast, featuring a deeply personal and powerful conversation with my dear friend, Emma Gilmour. This inspiring chat was originally part of the Body Love Revolution online summit, and I'm overjoyed to now share it here on the podcast. Emma is a registered counsellor, psychotherapist, intuitive eating practitioner, and alcohol-free coach based in Melbourne. In this episode, she opens up about her journey through diet culture, disordered eating, and grey area drinking—and how breaking free from both alcohol and toxic body standards transformed her midlife. We explore body acceptance in perimenopause, the unique challenges of being neurodivergent, and the healing power of intuitive eating and community. Emma's story—from running on empty in corporate life to reclaiming her power through ocean swimming (and yes, naked full moon swims called "Boobs to the Moon!")—will inspire you to start your own body love revolution. If you've ever felt like your body wasn't good enough, or you're navigating midlife while unlearning years of harmful messaging, this conversation is a warm, honest, and empowering embrace just for you.   Connect with Emma Gilmour: Instagram:@hoperisingcoaching Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/Hoperisingcoaching Website: http://www.hoperisingcoaching.com   Visit my website: https://www.emmawalkinshaw.com.au/home Follow me on Social Media!
