99. Lara's Story: From Food Guilt to Fueling Strength (Client Spotlight)

In this episode of The Fitness League , Lara opens up about her deeply personal journey from battling food guilt and body image struggles to stepping into a stronger, more empowered version of herself. With the guidance of her coach, Lara shifted her focus from weight loss to fueling for performance, building a healthier relationship with food, and celebrating her body for what it can do — not just how it looks. She shares how injury setbacks became opportunities for growth, how prehab and mindset work changed her approach to training, and why redefining success beyond the scale was the key to long-term progress. Whether you're in the thick of a mindset reset or just starting your own journey, Lara's story is a powerful reminder that change is possible — and it starts from within.
