From growing up insecure and that manifesting into the high-achiever, to controlling food and exercise in college, Holly shares how she lost her period and was repeatedly dismissed by doctors because she was a normal BMI and didn’t “look skinny enough.” She talks about the hard reality of letting go of her fit-girl identity, the breakthroughs she found in recovery, and how the HHAP Certification gave her the tools and confidence to turn her healing into her career.

In this episode, Julia Jarriel shares her recovery journey, one marked by slow, steady progress that challenged her patience, but ultimately taught her that she isn't in control. As someone who was highly active and fueled well above 2,500 calories, Julia’s story reminds us that losing a period doesn't always look like "under-eating" and recovering it isn’t always fast, even when you're "doing everything right."If you’re feeling stuck or wondering why your recovery feels slower than others’, this conversation will reassure you that slow doesn’t mean broken and that sometimes, the long road is exactly what your body (and mind) needs.Jool Wellness - Use HASOCIETY for 12% offhttps://joolwellness.comJoin The HA Societyhttp://thehasociety.com/joinWork 1:1 with us to get your period backhttp://thehasociety.com/coachingVisit us on YouTubehttps://youtube.com/c/danisheriffFollow us on IGhttp://instagram.com/thehasocietyhttp://instagram.com/danisheriffhttps://instagram.com/ashley_marie_smith_https://www.instagram.com/itsmishigarcia/The Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
