EP:96 (Clare Chiappetta)

from The Rocky Talky Podcast Hosted by Rocky

When you have a shared experience with another person, a friendship isn’t far behind. Somehow, there is a safety and muscle memory when two people have felt the world in the same way. Cue Clare Chiappetta… Like me, Clare wrestled with obesity, body image, building a brave face, and living as a hostage in unwanted skin. We both underwent bariatric surgery, lost the weight, and set out on our respective journeys to reclaim the missing pieces. Clare has a fantastic perspective and attitude toward her past, present, and future. I think that’s partly why I feel so comfortable sharing my own story with her…because she’s hopeful. I am very hard on my self. Many times I feel like I’m renting a new body, and at any moment, someone can just call it in and take it all back. There’s a lot of work left to do in this head and heart of mine… Clare has gone ahead of me in many ways, and I’ve found myself following her lead, and I think you’ll hear that in this interview. Needless to say, I’m thankful for Clare. If you’re wrestling with YOU, and feel like you can’t get out from underneath your situation, you might find this chat helpful. I know I did. Thanks Clare. Enjoy
