In this episode, I talk about the recovery process and how it happens in phases. Too many people try to rush the process or skip steps which ultimately slows them down and leaves them stuck. I share about my unique road to recovery and how, now, 13 years after making the powerful decision to work on recovery, I see things differently. Hindsight is 20/20, ya know? I also share what the process has looked like for various clients of mine, as many of their steps varied from mine. I hope you learn so much about yourself and what you need to keep moving forward from this episode.

Today we are with Rachel Hills, and our conversation gets raw, real, and deep. And it's loooooong and juicy! We talk about all the things, including her religious upbringing and the overlaps with diet culture, her personal struggle with body image and food, motherhood, miscarriages, health struggles. We dive into shame and how underneath it is a belief that you can change, how your personality is not your trauma responses and why we romanticize our EDs and thinness. AND SO MUCH MORE. It's an awesome conversation that I hope you love as much as I do.
Her Bio: I’m a wife, mother of 3 teenagers, hairstylist of 21 years and a trauma informed breathwork facilitator. My absolute favorite thing in the world is to lead women to their own healing, through breath, teaching and simple practices so they can live their most authentic, amazing lives! I also really love exclamation marks!

Inner Child work plays a powerful role in healing your relationship with food and your body because many of our earliest experiences of Diet Culture, body shame, trauma or feelings of not being enough/loveable, etc. happened in childhood. Those experiences impact how we relate to food and our body.
Use this meditation to connect to your inner child and offer her/him/them some unconditional love and attention.
