Today, Melissa Urban is the CEO of Whole 30. But more than 20 years ago, she was coming out on the other side of her second stint in rehab after overcoming addiction and navigating sexual abuse. For episode 249, Melissa opens up about how she concepted Whole 30, the ways that the program has dramatically impacted her life for the better, and who the elimination-style plan is for (versus who it's not). Plus: She opens up about her trauma history, which informed her expertise in setting and maintaining boundaries (as well as her latest book, The Book of Boundaries: Set the Limits That Will Set You Free).
