Episode 50 - One Step Back, Two Steps Forward with Guest Brooke Rozzie

In Episode 50, Brooke Rozzi started her career with a young 20-something year old’s mindset of wanting to just look good in a bikini and eating just right.  After a sudden weight gain during the grieving of her father’s death, she began asking “why” when she was doing all the “right” things. Feeling like her body was fighting against her, she pursued further education that opened her eyes to show her the importance of a lifestyle change on a microscale. A desire to have her daughter love the skin she’s in led Brooke to look for someone to actually educate her about the beauty and complexity of the woman’s body.   Sometimes to move forward, you have to take a step back. Paying attention to her body’s conversation with her about what felt good and what didn’t, when she needed to rest and when she was ready to a workout. Trading a hard workout for a walk in the park or a yoga session, deleting food tracking apps from her phone, and working with her body instead of against it.  Breath work and journaling and scaling back intense workouts were ultimately the trifecta of taking better care of her body and her mind.   Brooke is a Functional Nutritionist specializing in Women's health. She is a Mom of two and has been in the health & fitness industry for 14 years. After becoming a Mom, and through personal experiences with stress and the impacts it left on her body, she realized how unsupported women are in knowing what their body needs to feel good and how to achieve it to avoid burnout. Today's model is set up with a cyclical diet and exercise pattern, but it isn’t set to serve what a Woman's body truly needs to thrive. She works within her coaching to change the narrative on how women approach their health and fitness so they can truly feel good in their skin, ditch the diet and exercise mentality, and live a life that they are feeling really good in.   You can connect more with Brooke Rozzie here :    Website: www.brookerozzie.com Instagram: @brookerozzie Podcast: The Power of a Woman   Our recovery moment is focused on a guide visualization for self-compassion.   If you enjoyed this show make sure to subscribe and leave a review.    Ready to start your own journey to Burnout Recovery?
