“If you desire to make a change, don't listen to what other people are saying unless they’ve already done what it is you’re trying to do.” - Sherry Shaban

In this very personal episode of the Fall in Love with Fitness podcast, I get vulnerable and share my story of overcoming my life-altering injuries and how I shifted my mindset from victimhood to victory.

I discuss why fad diets often fail and how you can develop a healthier, more sustainable relationship with food. I also share the importance of system-focused goals over outcome-focused ones, advocating for small, consistent changes that lead to big transformations.

I highlight the necessity of self-love and respect on the health journey and emphasize that self-worth, personal growth, and mental positivity offer a refreshing perspective on the path to fitness and well-being.

Listen in to discover how to embrace transformation with patience and positivity, allowing you to thrive in all aspects of life.
