Weight release and fibroid shrinkage are major wellness milestones. It’s been a 15-year journey for Tami to see and accept herself as the beautiful person she is. In this video, she shares why she’s struggled with weight for most of her life and the big lesson that having fibroids has taught her.

If you’ve been here for a while, then you know that we never talk about health as if the issues are contained solely to the physical body. If health were as easy and simple as exercise and eating right, then folks wouldn’t be struggling as much nor for as long as they do.

Your health is inextricably tied to your thoughts, emotions, and beliefs. Even when Tami was doing many things right in terms of movement and diet the weight stayed and the debilitating fibroid pain persisted. It’s only when she faced the truth of how she thought about herself and learned to honor what her uterus demanded of her that she saw lasting improvement and became pain free.

You’re gonna to want a cup of tea and to get cozy while tuning into this conversation. Grab a journal too, so you’re prepared when your truths get poked while listening.

With joy,
Selima & Tami
