Show Notes
As a former actress who grew up in the era when extreme thinness was glamorized, Mel Wells deeply struggled with her body image and relationship to food. In our conversation, she describes the wake up call that inspired her to get to the root cause of her eating disorder and cultivate a self-love practice.
Mel describes how she addressed the emotional attachment she had to food and found healthier coping mechanisms. She shares the daily healing practices that continue to support her on this journey and advice for anyone on a similar path. Mel also reflects on the lessons she learned from her time living in Bali and her vision for helping others discover how food can be an avenue for optimal health.
