About this listen

In this episode I talk  about using fitness to overcome eating disorders and depression with Finland’s Amanda Essen. 

Fitness is like everything for me my passion. Before I found the gym, I wasn’t so into fitness and modeling. And I was like nothing about sports. I played soccer, but it wasn’t my thing. I just did it because everybody did. 

When I stepped the first time in the gym, it was like, I just fell in love.  I really directly find the connection and like, I don’t know, something lights inside me. And I started like, understand that I have a body and I need to take care of it and I want to be strong and I want to change everything, inside and outside. Like, yeah, become a strong woman and not be the person that everybody else wants me to be.
