The Power of You

Text me, bestie! I started my weight loss journey at 235 lbs back in 2014 ( I was a "New Year, New me" girlie). But when I started my journey, loose skin never once crossed my mind.

Back in 2014, I never really heard or saw women or influencers really talking about this, which is why I honestly never really expected it...

So after years of allowing myself to really focus on self-love, and allowing myself...

In this episode, I will talk about how to recognize if you are falling into the victi...

Text me, bestie! Content warning! This episode serves up some gut punches 👊🏻 But, hey...
