Chatting With The Birth Trauma Mama

I had the honor to talk with Kayleigh on The Birth Trauma Mama Podcast this week!

Our conversation explored:

🍽 How food and body concerns can resurface or intensify in pregnancy and postpartum

💔 Why trauma often brings up feelings of powerlessness, shame, and being unheard, and how those connect to eating concerns

🧠 The role of limiting beliefs and “little t” traumas in shaping postpartum experiences

🌱 Why bounce-back culture and societal expectations make recovery harder for new parents

🧩 How therapies like EMDR and IFS can support deeper healing beyond talk therapy

🤝 What providers, partners, and loved ones can do to support parents struggling with food and body image postpartum
