Feeling like intuitive eating isn’t working is a normal and expected part of the process. Instead of giving up and going back to dieting, get curious about what’s making you feel discouraged, scared or stuck. In this episode, you’ll learn how to tell whether you need to stick with it or do something differently, so you can get unstuck and keep moving forward.

Sometimes food and body struggles are about much more than food or your body. Jennifer Lancaster joins Katy to explore how trauma, coping, nervous system patterns, and body disconnection can shape our relationship with food, and what it can look like to heal beneath the surface.

Skills and coping strategies only go so far when the trauma underneath hasn’t been addressed. In this conversation, licensed clinical social worker Jennifer explains how trauma shows up in our relationship with food and our bodies, what ketamine-assisted therapy and EMDR actually involve, and how trauma-informed yoga and a simple five-minute body scan can help rebuild trust with yourself.
