After years of struggling with an eating disorder and intense back pain, Dr. Kelly Kessler found an unexpected solution to her suffering. Uncovering her emotional trauma as the root cause, Kelly took a journey of self-discovery and healing that was both transformational and inspiring. 

I’m a real human and this is what I went through…it inspires hope for people to realize this doesn’t have to be forever. – Dr. Kelly Kessler

Dr. Kelly Kessler’s journey to healing began with the realization that she had an eating disorder which she masked as athletic dedication. Fueled by a drive for perfection, Kelly pushed herself relentlessly, using exercise and food to fill an unrelenting void. As her eating disorder progressed, she eventually started to vomit to control her excessive eating. This wake-up call led her to acknowledge her problem and embark on a long, difficult journey to recovery.

This podcast spotlights the unrelenting women who went from managing to mastering life’s challenges, and the badass alternative practitioners who are changing the way we heal physically and emotionally.

I’m Dr. Sabrina Nichole, a licensed psychologist, author and motivational speaker, but more importantly I’m a person who was stuck and had to find my way through a chronic pain condition by unconventional methods.
