“My body became my business card,” Belinda explains in today's interview. You'll hear all about Belinda’s journey from experiencing weight loss success and even coaching others in a popular weight loss business to being overwhelmed with body image issues and desperate for help.
Belinda just completed the Body Image Freedom Framework online course and group coaching program. Belinda reached out on her 40th birthday for help and is now sharing her story after spending 12 weeks in Heather’s coaching and course.
Belinda had the “after” picture, but it hadn’t fixed her body image issues.
Today Belinda shares what she thought and expected from the program, how the program worked for her, and where she’s at now in her body image struggles.
“God wants you to be healthy and thin” was the message she heard, but it soon became an idol that Belinda was chasing and feeling more and more trapped instead of more freedom.
Now she feels like she has tools to knock down the lies and fight to believe what God says about her worth and her body.
Belinda shares how she had to re-learn principles around food and body from a biblical perspective and how she’s wrestled her heart posture and beliefs around beauty. She shares how this course helped her take that head knowledge and make it heart knowledge.
They also talk about how heavy the body shame is when women are struggling with body image issues and always trying to change their body to feel better about it.
They also talk about how the group coaching program connected Belinda to a group of women who understand not only her body image struggles but also understand a biblical perspective on how to solve them.
