Adventures Of An Entrepren00b

When Your Body Benches You

Tabitha Bear Season 1 Episode 3

In this deeply honest episode, Tabitha Bear opens up about the year her own body staged a rebellion and forced her to sit down. Hard. Exhaustion became a daily companion, her mental health wavered, her weight climbed rapidly, and even walking up a flight of stairs felt like summiting a mountain. Running a business while running on empty was no longer an option.

Tabitha takes you through the full journey of hitting a physical low point, facing frightening bloodwork results, entering a twelve week medical program, choosing surgery, and navigating everything that came after, including the hair loss, the body dysmorphia, the fear, the relief, and the emotional aftermath. From protein shakes and miso soup to dropping ninety three pounds and slowly rebuilding her confidence, she shares it all.
