Groundtable {The Origin Stories} Eating Disorders, Healing Trauma & Undoing The Doing With Dr. Tanda Cook and Dr. Katie Collier

Welcome to Groundtable in 2024! With this episode my Co-host, Brit Albin, and I are launching "A Continuation of Wholeness" to kick off the new year. In this first new year's segment two very special guests join us at the table: Dr. Tanda Cook and Dr. Katie Collier!

Both doctors share the sentiment that everyone needs to go through recovery because we all have big "T"s and little "T"s "traumas" that affect every cell in our bodies, our gut, our nervous systems along with how they affect our brain development and our neurotransmitters. We all suffer due to most of us walking around with unresolved trauma. It's really getting to that level of healing. It's not just about eating again or gaining weight, it's about getting to the root of why we do what we do and then, once the root is uncovered we need all the tools and the village around us to support us as we walk out recovery and true, full-life integration of successfully living whole.

Dr. Tanda Cook and Dr. Katie Collier both agree on their journey's to wholeness it is the most beautiful unveiling and unbecoming of your truest self. This is deep, hard work for every human. In our dialogue today we uncover the reality that every soul needs to be tended to for recovery from micro and macro traumas in our lives. For too long we have minimized what it takes to heal and the healing it takes to live a life of freedom and strength.

Through the lens of both physicians, we learn the grit and determination it took as they pressed through the "restrict and binge" cycles and patterns of life that extend far beyond their eating disorders. We learn how to keep showing up consciously and subconsciously to look at ourselves and choose to be whole!   

We believe this could be the best part of your day!

Thank you for listening friend!
