This week on The Food Freedom Life Podcast, Registered Dietitian Brittany Cory hosts Maggie Nick: a recovering burned out, overachieving, people pleasing, perfectionist, pushover + former "good" kid turned trauma therapist. She’s an expert on healing your inner critic and how to stop beating yourself up, and she teaches a revolutionary approach to healing low self-worth + ALL the ways it can show up: perfectionism, people pleasing, self-hate, anxiety, fear of letting others down, feeling not good enough. She is here to help you understand yourself on a profound and healing level so you can be the parent you needed to your inner child (AND to your child, if you're a parent).
She’s also a Parenting Expert + the Founder of ✨Parenting With Perspectacles✨, where she teaches about Big Feelings + Accountability with LOVE not shame for toddlers + teens + everyone in between. So you can raise kind, confident kids who feel good enough!
