Hello, everyone! 

Today, I want to delve into a topic that resonates with many of us: the profound connection between childhood trauma and our relationship with food. This is a journey I’ve witnessed repeatedly in my coaching practice, and I believe sharing these insights can help others who may be experiencing similar struggles. 

Let’s take a moment to imagine a woman who faced significant challenges during her childhood. These experiences left deep emotional scars that followed her into adulthood. As she grew older, she turned to food for comfort, finding solace in meals during tough times. However, while food provided temporary relief, it also brought along feelings of guilt, self-doubt, and even self-hatred. This cycle of using food as a coping mechanism only added to her trauma. 

This is where the concept of self-compassion becomes crucial. When we begin to understand the reasons behind our reliance on food for comfort, we can start to break free from those chains. Instead of asking ourselves, “What’s wrong with me?” we can shift our perspective to “What happened to me?” This simple yet powerful change in narrative opens the door to healing. 

In my coaching sessions, I encourage my clients to approach their experiences with compassion, curiosity, and kindness. Together, we explore their past and how it has shaped their current behaviours. This awareness is the first step towards freedom—the freedom to make choices that align with their true selves. 

If you or someone you know is grappling with food issues, limiting beliefs, or mindset challenges, I want you to know that I’m here to help. Each year, I support over 1,000 individuals in overcoming similar struggles, and I would love to assist you on your journey as well.
