About this episode
Dr. Lara May interviews Tara Wiskow about her journey of self-discovery and transformation after years of shape-shifting to meet others' expectations.
What happens when you spend your entire life trying to become who others need you to be? In this episode of Light Body Radio, Dr. Lara May sits down with intuitive healer, energy coach, and life reinvention expert Tara Wiskow for a deeply vulnerable conversation about identity, self-worth, emotional healing, and transformation. After years of shape-shifting to gain love and acceptance, Tara found herself disconnected from her true self—struggling with shame, self-rejection, emotional pain, and eventually weighing 338 pounds. Following years of inner battles and multiple suicide attempts, one life-changing moment shifted everything: learning to love herself instead of punishing herself. Through mirror work, self-compassion, energetic healing, and identity transformation, Tara went on to naturally lose 220 pounds and completely reinvent her life from the inside out. This episode is a powerful reminder that true healing begins when we stop abandoning ourselves and start embracing who we truly are. © Light Body Radio-Podcast, 2026. All rights reserved.
