Ep 387 - Hall Of Fame | Stela Zakheou: From Stress Eating Corporate To Starting Business In Best Shape Of Her Life!
Welcome back to another episode of RNT Fitness Radio, where I’m joined by RNTer Stela, who’s journey with us began at the same time her frustration with her corporate career peaked. The unhealthy habits of her corporate life had taken a big toll. She felt unfit, unhealthy and ready for a change. After listening to my book about 18 months ago, she realised things were a bit different here at RNT. Because we not only focus on helping you get into amazing shape, but giving you the control to actually stay there. The insights she gained from the book propelled her to quit her 9-5, focus on building her business and invest in her health. In this episode we dive into Stela’s history with stress eating, using food as a crutch, and her problems with yo-yo dieting. We also uncover how the RNT Methodology gave her the structure, strategy and system to upskill all aspects of her life. The physical transformation really has been the vehicle for Stela’s personal and professional growth. Today, Stela feels energised and confident and I can’t wait for you to hear her story.
