Ditching the "Earn & Burn" Mentality with Samantha Christy, RD & OTF Coach

What happens when the thing you love… starts hurting you?

In this episode, I sit down with registered dietitian, body-neutral personal trainer, and founder of Triple A Wellness, Samantha Christy, to talk about her journey from toxic fitness culture to truly healing her relationship with movement and food.

Samantha opens up about her experience with Orthorexia—how it quietly took over her life through overtraining, undereating, and rigid “health” rules… and how she eventually found her way out.

We talk about:

The fine line between “disciplined” and disordered

Why underfueling and overtraining often get praised (especially in fitness spaces)

How intuitive eating can coexist with performance and strength

What it actually looks like to create a safe, inclusive space in fitness

Rebuilding trust with your body after it’s been pushed too far

If you’ve ever questioned whether your “healthy habits” are actually helping you… this conversation is for you.
