Introducing Sarah Merrifield Creator of the Liberated Fitness Playbook
I found Sarah on IG when Jameela Jamil shouted her out. I was beginning my playbook for playing the game of life so when I saw your Liberated Fitness Playbook, I immediately became a fan. Sarah is a certified personal trainer, nutritionist, and yoga instructor. When she works with clients she tailors a unique plan to achieve their personal goals getting their whole lifestyle on point.
Sarah’s Story
Sarah started a relationship with fitness in an unhealthy way at the age of 14. She developed orthorexia and compulsive exercising. She suffered through her college years. Later she became socially isolated and realized that fitness was taking over her life. Sarah decided to take a different track and get certified in fitness. She discovered her niche in helping others get out of unhealthy fitness and nutrition habits.
Sarah tells us that orthorexia is an obsession with healthy eating and the quality of food. She also tells us that fitness should be 5% of your life.
