Romi did everything “right.” She worked out. She ate clean. She was disciplined, knowledgeable, and praised for it. And still...her period disappeared.
In this episode, Romi shares what it actually looked like to unravel years of restriction disguised as health, control disguised as discipline, and an identity built around being the “fit, healthy girl.” Her journey wasn’t fast. It wasn’t linear. And it didn’t fit neatly into a 10-week recovery "timeline", but that’s exactly why her story matters.
We talk about low energy availability that hides behind salads and productivity, binge eating that was really just hunger, the fear of eating more and resting more, and the deep resistance that comes up when healing asks you to let go of who you’ve been praised for being. Romi opens up about body changes, grief around muscle loss, developing body image for the first time, and the quiet but powerful moment when her body finally felt safe enough to ovulate again.
This episode is for the woman who feels stuck even though she’s “trying.” For the one whose labs aren’t moving, whose body won’t respond on command, and who secretly wonders if she’s broken. Romi’s story is a reminder that recovery is not just about food and exercise, it’s about trust, identity, and learning how to stop micromanaging your body long enough to let it heal.
If you’ve ever thought, “Why is this taking so long?” or “Why can’t I just fix this?”- this one is for you.
