Episode 5 - Interview with Debbie Thompson: She shares her struggles with binge eating & exercise bulimia

05/23/22 • 50 min

In this episode, Debbie Thompson, a health coach, shares how she struggled with binge eating, exercise bulimia & yo-yo dieting in her teens & 20's.
After healing from that, she was fine for almost 20 years, but when she turned 40 and unknowingly entered perimenopause, she found herself in weight and food battles again as her body was changing and she kept gaining weight without doing anything differently.
ABOUT DEBBIE:
She helps women over 40 who feel drawn to fulfill their purpose and live to the fullest in this phase of life, but they're sick & tired of recurring struggles with feeling out of control with food and on & off dieting.
Debbie helps you eat like a normal person and find effortless consistency taking care of yourself without the extremes or perfectionism of diets, so you lose the mental, physical & emotional weight and feel beautiful in your favorite clothes to do all you're alive to do.

ABOUT ME
I'm Cherie Faus-Smith also known as The Feisty Midlife Courage Coach.
My joyful spirt and fun approach to helping midlife women live an unapologetic life is my superpower.
Midlife has many challenges and leaves most of us feeling lonely, depressed, invisible, unfulfilled, confused, and anxious.
My specialty is helping midlife women, specifically those in their 50s, become confident badasses by teaching them how to say NO without the guilt (aka stop people pleasing behaviors), finding their true purpose, creating a clearer sense of self-identity, walking away from toxic relationships and creating healthy boundaries, overcoming that invisible feeling that others aren't taking them seriously, finding approval within themselves instead of looking for it from others, and most importantly, not taking life too seriously.
My coaching style is different because I'm all about having fun. And yes, you can have fun while doing the hard work.
At this stage of our lives, we shouldn't be sitting in the corner like Baby in Dirty Dancing.
Grab my hand and let me show you how to live unapologetically in midlife.
