85. Overcoming Low Blood Sugar Anxiety and Trusting Your Body with Nicole Trone

Lauren Bongiorno Season 1 Episode 85

Today on the show, we have Decide and Conquer Group Coaching Program alum Nicole Trone. When I first met Nicole, she had extreme low blood sugar anxiety and could not build trust with her body's patterns. She has had one of the biggest mindset transformations I've ever seen from a Risley coaching program. In this episode, Nicole shares her chaotic diagnosis story and her journey to overcoming her debilitating anxiety.
