Maddy Moon had the “Perfect Body” and She Still Wasn’t Happy

At a very young age, Maddy became obsessed with how food and exercise could make her look.

She developed a lifestyle, a body and frankly – an obsession – that (in her own words) took the place of relationships, mental health, relationships, sleep, food, her menstrual cycle, relationships, a healthy metabolism, happiness, RELATIONSHIPS, and anything else that is truly important in life.



Today, Maddy helps people see the light

Maddy has exchanged the “perfect body” (it wasn’t), for a balanced, happy, healthy, sexy, rich life. (And, oh, PS – she’s beautiful, beautifully healthy, and blissfully un-obssessed.)


She helps others find peace in their relationships with food and their own bodies.



In this Episode:

  • Understanding how the messages we get from our families and as children can impact us - and sometimes need to be reprogrammed

  • What happened when Maddy entered the fitness industry, became a fitness model and had “everything she ever wanted” – and was absolutely miserable

  • The impact of food obsession and disordered eating on Maddy’s life, body and relationships

  • How the need for control, attention, validation and acceptance can lead us away from our true selves

  • So you have the perfect body, now what?

  • Where Maddy’s confidence comes from now

Maddy happy & healthy today
