Show Notes

Earlier this spring I realized many of us have been conditioned to suffer in silence. 

 

We don’t want to ask for help. 

Don’t want to seem weak or like we have no willpower or self control. 

Don’t want to show how bad things really are

 

I did this growing up and never told mom how much I was hurting.

I did this with food and my body image. 

And I definitely did this in my marriage. 

 

It made it infinitely harder to get help, especially because I thought I was the problem. 

I just needed to try harder. I just needed to "fix myself" somehow. 

 

But that silence just breeds more shame, mistrust, and frustration. 

And the way to break the silence is to speak up. 

To start talking. 

To start asking for help and getting professional support. 

 

I can help. 

Schedule your free consultation and I’ll show you how to break free from suffering with food, alcohol, your body, emotional eating, past relationship trauma, and more.
