Finding Peace along a weight loss Journey with Laura

In this powerful episode of the Weight Loss Warrior Podcast, I sit down with my friend and fellow coach Laura to explore her extremely inspiring story. Laura’s journey with weight loss began in her teens and has taken her to both ends of the spectrum - from over-restriction and over-training to over-indulgence and regaining weight. After years in a toxic relationship where food became both a comfort and a form of control, Laura found the strength to leave and rebuild her life. Now, she approaches health from a place of self-love, not punishment. We talk about: How she broke free from the cycle of extremes Why finding balance is the key to lasting change The mindset shift from “I have to” to “I deserve to” Her practical tips for calorie counting without obsession Why patience and imperfect action matter more than perfection This episode is a reminder that your journey doesn’t have to be perfect to be powerful - and that kindness to yourself is the ultimate game-changer. If you’ve ever felt trapped in the “all or nothing” approach to weight loss, Laura’s story will show you that there is another way - one built on resilience, balance, and a deep respect for your own well-being. 📌 Follow Laura on Instagram: @laura.porteous21 📌 Join The Rising Warrior Community - Try it free for 4 days via the link in the show notes.
