The Mother Wound: How Generational Trauma Shows Up In Our Eating

In this episode, Alana explores the deeply rooted mother-daughter food cycle and unpacks how inherited beliefs and behaviors around food can impact our relationship with eating. She invites listeners to recognize that the patterns of guilt, shame, and control they face didn't originate with them, but may have been modeled by female influences in their lives. Alana delves into the generational impact of diet culture, examining how past generations' struggles with food and body image imprints onto the next. Listeners are encouraged to become more mindful of these inherited patterns, and inspired to break the cycle by embracing a nourishing and neutral relationship with food.
