In this episode, Corissa shares how she lost the +15 pounds she had gained in 2020 during the world pandemic & quarantine. She opens up about how she put on weight so easily, why she didn't rush to lose it, and when she finally felt ready to release the “Quarantine +15” she was carrying. The next year in 2021, Corissa was able to love & accept her body completely WITH the extra weight, leading her to decide that she was ready to commit to a fat-loss phase & hire a coach of her own.
