Adrienne is a Voice and performance coach. She teaches, sings and writes in a variety of styles including rock and jazz which are my favourites. She also teaches voice and performance skills to students around the world through Skype.
Adrienne lost over 20 pounds in her life twice in her life by using diet and exercise.
Adrienne talks about how she went to Spain on exchange for a year, which is such an amazing story. She talks about her relationship with food and her emotions when it came to food.
We talk about American sized portions, the heat in Phoenix, fish tacos, leftover Thai food, how chocolate gives her a bloody nose, how she always fought her weight, how much mental energy she used to expend thinking about food, how she learned to listen to her body, and how she fixed her relationship with food. And, much more…
