Listen to episode 192:
"Cutting sugar helped me to heal my trauma": Judi
September 15, 2024
Judi came from a home with a lot of trauma.
Growing up, there was always sugar around. Her mother baked a lot, and that was Judi's go-to whenever she felt any kind of emotional need.
As she started to grow older, she felt like she didn't belong. She just didn't fit in. She felt so different - like an outcast, not connected with people and not connected with herself, but she didn't know why.
As an adult, severe depression took over to the point where Judi had thoughts like: Why am I on this Earth? Why is my life like this? What have I done to deserve all this?
But she pretended that everything was OK. She made it look good on the outside.
She was a people pleaser, a caretaker, a workaholic, she says. In her work, Judi would always rise to the top because she was an overachiever.
Judi developed several addictions, but sugar was the hardest to let go of.
Listen to how Judi went from not being able to sleep, depression, self hate, and feeling desperate... to healing her trauma, and feeling free from the hold that sugar had on her.
