On this episode, Alex and Julie meet with Megan Tucker, who opens up about her journey through depression and self-discovery, sharing valuable insights on mental health, resilience, and self-love. She reflects on how societal expectations and personal struggles, like juggling motherhood and a fitness career, led her to a transformative realization: that true contentment doesn't come from outward achievements or physical goals, but rather from inner acceptance and nurturing self-worth.

Megan discusses her journey of learning to appreciate her body and spirit during her most challenging moments, even when she felt emotionally and physically depleted. She talks about the importance of self-love as a foundation for growth, not just for personal transformation, but also as a way to support her children by providing a stable, non-reactive presence during their hard times. Megan’s story illustrates that self-acceptance enables a deeper understanding of one's worth beyond societal ideals and serves as a vital example of resilience and healing for those around her.

Now as a nurse, Megan combines her passion for health with her life lessons, aiming to teach women the importance of embracing themselves fully rather than relying on a fitness or meal plan to find fulfillment. Her approach encourages listeners to look within, creating a lasting and transformative shift that’s fueled by genuine self-love, rather than temporary external fixes. Through her story, Megan highlights how inner work and vulnerability build a stronger foundation for achieving goals and finding purpose.
