Episode 27: Dealing with Setbacks, Plateaus and Loss of Motivation on Your Health Journey
Recovery from an eating disorder, hypothalamic amenorrhea, or a physical injury requires time and patience.
You might be sitting there wondering to yourself when your period will come back, when you’ll feel fully recovered from emotional or disordered eating, or when that ankle sprain will allow you to run again.
It can be so frustrating to deal with these unknown timelines, and more often than not you feel like giving up.
But before you throw in the towel, I urge you to do one thing – listen to the podcast below.
I’ve faced some pretty big setbacks in my life and have learned some really helpful lessons you can use to help you keep moving forward in your health journey.
In today’s podcast I cover:
- The biggest setbacks I’ve faced in my health journey including multiple injuries, hypothalamic amenorrhea for 10 years, and persistent back pain symptoms after a car crash
- What lessons you can take from my setbacks and use for yourself including importing mindset shifts and behaviour changes
- How long healing REALLY takes – whether it be a physical, mental or emotional wound that you’re working through
- How to keep going when you feel like you’ve hit a plateau or lost motivation with your health journey
