The Last Word with Matt Cooper · Katriona O'Sullivan on Her New Book Hungry & Her Journey To Love Her Body · 29 Apr 2026 podcast

This is not a new story.

There's breakfast clubs happening across our country because we know that lots of kids are going to school hungry.

So I wanted to talk about that and I wanted to talk about the lifelong impact of that.

Like, I'm always hungry.

I don't think that's ever left me.

The feeling that I'm not going to have enough has never left me.

I don't know to be honest I don't know I do know that I have always been driven for food and always worried about having enough food I think it left that mark on me but because of the complexities of what I was living in because of not just poverty and lack of food I was also living in an environment where I lacked love and I had sexual trauma in childhood which

made me really question my body.

All of them things came together to actually cause a disordered relationship with food.

Well, before anything bad happened to my body, I thought my body was the greatest place I've had to be in.

I was free.

I had cartwheel and I was a football player and I played as strong as the lads.

You were comfortable in your own skin.

I was comfortable in my skin and actually felt quite proud of my body.

This is one of the things that I tried to highlight in the book is like a lot of my worth...

was taught to me and a lot of women's worth is taught to them about what they look like.

But as a little girl, I was a really beautiful little girl and my family, the only love I really got was attached to what I look like.

So I had this sense of pride around my body and what it looked like, but also had this hunger going on, this lack of food.

And then I experienced these really traumatic abuse situations in my home, which I do talk about regularly.

in the book, more so than I did in Paul.
