In Episode 13, we have Tracy Brown as a guest to discuss Principle 7: Cope with Your Emotions without Using Food. In our conversation today, Tracy shares some of her own journey to food freedom and becoming a dietitian, why simply knowing the facts about nutrition doesn’t always create change, the neurobiology of trauma, techniques to help ground yourself toward safety, and so much more. I learned so much from Tracy in this conversation and found myself taking notes to come back to and learn in my spare time.
