The Spiritual Work Behind My 100-Pound Weight Loss (My Avatar Upgrade)

This is the story behind my 100-pound weight loss—and why the most important part of my transformation was not physical.

I share the spiritual, emotional, medical, and trauma-healing work behind what I call my “avatar upgrade,” including the moment I admitted my relationship with food and my body had become unmanageable.

In this episode, I talk honestly about bariatric surgery, emotional eating, food as safety and connection, childhood trauma, surrender, embodiment, and the difference between wanting temporary comfort and wanting a completely different life. This is not medical advice or a universal blueprint. It is my personal story of using both spiritual tools and grounded professional support to come home to my body and create lasting change.

Content note: This episode includes discussion of childhood sexual trauma, obesity, emotional eating, food addiction, and weight-loss surgery.
