Carrie Cox is a photographer, writer, and was formerly a trainer that was casted on the “Fit to Fat to Fit” TV show. In this episode, Drew and Carrie talk about her time on the show, the dark places that gaining and losing weight took her, and how hitting rock bottom literally changed Carrie’s life forever. While Carrie’s experience was largely one of heart-break and suffering, she ultimately found herself on a path of healing the deep wounds that she didn’t even know existed, and forgiveness of not only herself - but those that had inflicted the deepest of her wounds. Her story is inspiring, insightful, and a testament to the power of forgiveness.
