"I saw myself unzip my body and step out" - Carla Fitzgerald
In this episode of The Parting Glass, we sit down with the incredibly inspiring and gorgeous Carla Piera Fitzgerald, also known as "Half of Carla. Carla shares her powerful journey from battling food addiction and an eating disorder since childhood, to transforming her life after a pivotal decision in July 2019. Through sheer determination and commitment, Carla lost 180 pounds in a year, and now she’s on a mission to help others do the same by ‘Showing Up For Yourself.’
Carla opens up about her personal struggles, growing up in a food-focused family that owned a bakery, and the difficult relationship she developed with food early on. Her story of resilience, mental health, and body transformation has touched thousands, and today she shares her insights on self-discovery, healing, and the importance of supporting others on their own journeys.
Tune in for an episode filled with vulnerability, strength, and inspiration as Carla discusses how she overcame her toughest battles and now uses her platform to guide others to take control of their lives.
