Today we are joined by my past group coaching client, Emily H. Emily was part of behind the binge academy for 6 months starting in February 2022. When she first started, she struggled with the all-or-nothing mentality. She was big on healthy eating and macro counting, down to every gram, and working out excessively, but then would find herself on the other end of the spectrum bingeing, purging, and isolating. Can you relate? On her application for behind the binge academy, she mentioned her goals. She said she would like to break free from bingeing and obsessing over food. She wanted a balanced life without being focused on perfection. I'm so excited to share her story with you today so you can how she accomplished exactly that! From bingeing and restricting, and bikini competitions, to a balanced, healthful life of food freedom. I want to remind you that behind the binge academy is open for enrollment RIGHT NOW. The academy is my signature group coaching program following my proven framework to give you everything you need to find binge freedom. It's 3 months of group coaching and online modules that will help you rewire your binge brain, regulate your appetite, build body trust & attunement, and create a healthful life without restrictions of diet culture. Apply now! It only opens a few times a year and I don't want you to miss this cohort before the year ends.

This week, Ciara welcomes Julia Lynn, a 64 year old athlete, who is the ultimate story of what discipline, focus, and determination can look like when you take accountability for your health. Julia shares about her health challenges in the early part of her life, including diabetes which led to multiple organ transplants and a bypass. She talks about what made her decide to take control of her own health and not let her busy schedule be an excuse. Now as Julia prepares for a bikini competition, she sets a terrific example of breaking down barriers at any age. She and Ciara also talk about listening to your body and how one specific diet is not a custom one size fits all approach for everyone. In this episode, you will learn more about: Julia was diagnosed with diabetes when she was 11 and has been through double organ transplants and a bypass. Instead of focusing on the negative, she saw this as an opportunity to take back and health and to thrive at new levels. True health is what we build every day with our nutrition, health, sleep, lifestyle, etc. There is no reason to fear aging if you are fit. How Julia took it one step at a time while in Saudi Arabia and Mexico to realize she needed to make a big change in her health.Taking care of your health is a way to honor the ones you love, so you could show up and be there for them in the deepest way. Julia is an example that lifting weights will slow down the aging process and make you toned and lean. Keto may not be right for everyone, and Julia loves feeding her body healthy carbs! Our innate intuition is so powerful, listen to your body. Big life events can make us feel like we need to push our wellness habits aside, but that is really when we need them most. Putting herself first has helped Julia feel an inner reservoir of strength and resilience. When the student is ready, the teacher appears. You have to be a vehicle for opportunities. As you change, your goals and priorities will change too. Knowing your body is a real element of getting fit, but it takes personal accountability.  Say Hi To Ciara At:www.ciarafoy.com@ciarafoyincMore:Julia Joan MacDonald Michelle MacDonald
