Ep. 106 - How to Trust Yourself and Redefine Wellness with Linda Cicero

In this episode of the Finding Purpose Podcast, Adam sits down with Linda Cicero, founder of Life in Color, certified fitness professional, nutrition coach, behavior change specialist, hormonal health educator, and creative whose work helps women redefine health on their own terms.

With over 20 years of experience in wellness, Linda's journey goes far beyond food and fitness. Her story is rooted in healing perfectionism, overcoming disordered eating, rebuilding her relationship with her body, and learning how to trust herself again. What changed everything wasn't another diet or fitness routine—it was dance. What began as a quiet inner whisper to walk into a Fred Astaire dance studio became the portal that reconnected her to herself and ultimately changed the direction of her life.

Through that experience, Linda realized purpose wasn't something tied to achievement, money, or checking boxes. It was something deeper—something rooted in joy, self-trust, and learning how to listen to what she calls "the whispers."

This conversation explores perfectionism, shame, body image, social media, spirituality, and the courage it takes to stop living by someone else's definition of health and start defining your own.

This is a conversation about freedom, self-acceptance, and remembering that your purpose may already be inside you—you just have to listen.
