You are invited to take the first step.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, frustrated, or confused about your relationship with food, you’re not alone. You don’t have to figure it out alone, either.
This group offers a safe, supportive space to explore the complex connection between food and self.
Whether you're just beginning your journey or have been working on this for a while, you'll find community here. Together, we’ll dive into meaningful topics, uncover your unique patterns and experiences with food, and begin to build a healthier, more empowered way forward.
Why Join this Group?
You’re seeking a clear, compassionate framework to better understand how you currently relate to food — emotionally, mentally, and behaviorally.
You’re curious about how your past experiences may be shaping your current eating habits, coping strategies, and self-perception.
You value a trauma-informed, weight-inclusive approach to food education — one that prioritizes safety, respect, and holistic well-being.
Weekly Topics:
Week 1: Unpacking Diet Culture
Understanding how diet culture has shaped your beliefs, body image, and relationship with food.
Week 2: When Trauma Meets the Table
Exploring how past experiences influence eating patterns and emotional responses around food.
Week 3: Mapping Your Food Story
Piecing together your personal journey with food — the influences, turning points, and patterns.
Week 4: Putting It All Together
Integrating insights, answering your questions, and beginning to rewrite your food narrative.
Meet Christine
I am a Registered Dietitian, foodie, gardener, wife, and mom to five amazing kids
I have a deeply personal food story, just like you. Mine began with the desire to feed my family well — which led to questions, confusion, frustration, and eventually, clarity
I use a trauma-informed lens to support clients in healing their relationship with food
I embrace a non-diet, weight-inclusive, and evidence-based approach to nutrition
I believe food is more than just fuel — it’s connection, culture, joy, trauma, and personal story.
I want to help you find self-compassion and grace on your food journey
