I am living proof that full, lasting recovery from an eating disorder is possible.

I won't get too into the weeds about my back story (you can learn more about me here), but know it was a dark, gruesome one.

I spent more than half of my life battling bulimia and compulsive exercise—mostly all in complete secrecy. One day, I mustered up the courage to tell my significant other, and he pushed me to get the help I had long needed.

The road to recovery was long and bumpy as hell, but I eventually made it. A couple of years later, I earned my eating disorder recovery coaching certification and founded my own online coaching business—Bigger Than a Body LLC.

Working as a coach to help people struggling with an eating disorder or simply looking to find peace and balance with how they eat, move, and view their bodies brings me fulfillment beyond measure.

I hope to extend my impact here on Medium by writing stories using my personal experience as an eating disorder survivor and health coach to offer guidance, perspective, and inspiration to anyone who may benefit from it.

If you'd to learn more about eating disorder/disordered eating recovery coaching, I welcome you to set up a free 30-minute call with me.

No matter how long you've struggled with food or your body, full, lasting healing is possible
