Speaking the Weight Off - The Secret My Body Has Been Carrying

Content note: In this episode I talk about trauma and painful family experiences. I do not share graphic details, but the themes may feel heavy for some listeners. Please take care of yourself while listening.

I’ve been overweight since I was 6 years old, and for most of my life I believed that was just “a weight problem.” In reality, my body has been carrying a terrible secret that I haven’t been able to talk about publicly… until now. In this episode, I finally share the story behind my weight and the unspoken pain my body has been holding for me all these years.

I don’t name names and I stay in my lane, telling my story through my own experience as a daughter, a medium, and a cycle breaker in my family line. My hope is that by speaking this out loud, the weight can begin to come off—physically, emotionally, and spiritually—and that someone listening will feel less alone, seen, and maybe a little more ready to speak their own truth too.
