How This Mom Overcame 40 Years Of Dieting, Learned To Love Herself & Had Tremendous Career Growth Aug 06, 2023

Have you ever looked at your life and thought “I have everything I’ve ever wanted and yet there’s something missing.” The truth is, you’re not alone in these feelings. It’s incredibly normal (yet hardly talked about) that many women like you are going through similar challenges in life and trying to find a deeper meaning and purpose.

In this powerful episode I’m sitting down with Corrie, a graduate of the Ultimate Transformation Program who is sharing how she “had it all” yet realized she didn’t know who she was at the core and the deep level of unhappiness and lack of fulfillment she experienced. She’d been dieting for her entire life and couldn’t get over unhealthy patterns of eating which led to weight gain.

She shares how the program helped her to completely transform her life, including the profound shift with her relationship to food. Corrie has been promoted within the course of a few months of UTP, has slowed down and for the first time ever, truly knows who she is.

This is a story about a mother, wife, daughter, and businesswoman who overcame her challenges to build her dream life, and how you can too.

No One Has Their Sh*t Together Apr 10, 2022

We’re living in a time where you can search google for any answers but it’s information overload. With so much access, it’s hard to know where to start and what to follow. There is a journey we all go on at different levels at different times. It’s a journey of understanding that all of the answers we’re looking for actually come from within ourselves and it requires us to heal the relationship we have with ourselves to see it. In this episode, I’m sharing my experiences on that very journey.

What is A Sharper Life: Where we’ve been and where we’re going
Eating disorders, depression, and feeling like a f**k up
