Nailing Prep but Struggling Post-Show

Ashley came to me post-show expressing how she nailed her prep to the T & had no issues at all with sticking to her plan but when prep ended, she found herself struggling with binging, purging, & not knowing how to stop herself from eating & consistently eating to extreme discomfort.

She was consumed with thoughts about food, worrying about holidays and meals out & vacations (all of which she ended up crushing during the program by the way), & eating in secret.

She told me she wants to become an IFBB pro one day & wanted to be an example to her daughter of what a healthy relationship with food could look like while pursuing her health & fitness goals.

We texted a few times through my free text message blasts & DMs & she had listened to my podcast for a long time and knew working with me would be her next best step.

I’m sooo glad she decided to reach out because by the end of the program she expressed to me that she felt like she had so many breakthroughs that her relationship with food was literally “night and day” as she can now trust and listen to herself as well as her body.

I remember one time I acknowledged how she was showing up for herself and that stuck with her because it became an ongoing mantra I’d see in her daily journals and we’d discuss personally too.

The journey is never perfect but her journey was full of lessons and opportunities for growth that she was willing to be honest about and address right off the bat!

I’m so amazed by her and can’t wait to see how she continues to progress in her journey from here.

Finding peace with food as a competitor is 100% possible and by having mental clarity, you’ll be able to have more longevity & patience because you have more insight.

Ashley is a champion!! I felt so fulfilled reading these kind words from her especially because I know what she had overcome.
