It was such an honor and pleasure interviewing Mikala McClain! She’s a mother, a wife, a nurse, and an entrepreneur. She has such a fascinating story, and a TON of great learnings and teachings I KNOW you’re gonna love. Mikala lost her mother early at age 11. This led to a desire for “self control” which translated into figure competitions and some body dysmorphia. Mikala learned that trying to control the external without working on the internal was almost futile; that set her on a path to learn therapies that could help her feel whole again. Things we discuss: • the loss of her mother and recent loss of her father and how that impacted her image of herself. • her disillusionment from being a nurse. learning to notice why you feel a certain way, where it comes from. • more is not better, esp with fitness. skimpy is not good, esp with nutrition. • your why behind your health habits is important. • polyvagal theory and the states of the nervous system. • and so much more!
