It's not just about food; it's about how we feel about ourselves, how we feel about our bodies, how we feel about our sexuality, and how we feel about our power.
Ever wondered how deep the connection between sexual trauma and eating habits runs? In this episode of 'Flip The Script With Emma', host Emma welcomes sexologist and coach Ayesha Hussain to uncover the profound ways sexual trauma shapes women's relationships with food. Through their heartfelt discussion, they reveal that one in three women dealing with chronic weight issues has faced some form of sexual abuse or assault.
This trauma often leads to limiting beliefs about oneself, body image struggles, and the creation of a 'shield' of weight as a form of protection. Ayesha shares her expertise on how these experiences can drive women to want to become invisible, avoiding attention and further harm. They discuss the staggering prevalence of eating disorders linked to sexual trauma and stress the importance of addressing these issues head-on.
Emma and Ayesha also highlight the necessity of professional support in the healing journey, emphasizing trust as a cornerstone for recovery. They offer practical advice on how to rebuild trust in oneself and others, paving the way for true sexual liberation and empowerment. This episode isn't just about food; it's about reclaiming power over one's life and body.
If you're seeking to understand the intricate ties between trauma and eating habits, or if you're on a healing journey yourself, this conversation is a must-listen.
