Summary: McCall Dempsey is the founder of Southern Smash, a non-profit dedicated to raising eating disorder awareness and promoting positive body image through events where they (literally) smash scales with hammers. McCall is a warrior and has come a long way in her recovery from her eating disorder but, recently, she has been on another road to recovery; recovery from grief. In May of 2015, McCall's 8 month old daughter, Marjorie, was diagnosed with cancer. McCall tells us how this devastating news put her life and career on hold but eventually helped to give her a fresh perspective on life and a renewed sense of gratitude. Marjorie is now 2 years old and cancer free :-) SHOW NOTES: www.recoverywarriors.com/mccall-dempsey-grief/ **FREE ACCESS TO THE FOODBODYLOVE RALLY** https://rally.truewarrior.fm/ **TRUE WARRIOR FEATURED CLASS** How to Get Unstuck: Identify the Blocks and Barriers Holding You Back From a Life You Love www.truewarrior.fm/how-to-get-unstuck What You'll Learn: • How a devastating experience can reveal what is most important in life and teach you how to take everyday annoyances in stride • The healing benefits of writing down and sharing your experiences and emotions • How to see the beauty in the ordinary • The importance of allowing yourself the space to grieve • How to stay strong in your recovery when life gets tough
