What does childhood trauma look like when you're an adult? When it's been buried deep within us, it doesn't just go away. And once you find it, how can you manage and treat it? These are the questions that my dear friend and fantastic guest, Ingrid Christine Abild-Pedersen, answers on the show this week as we dive into the murky waters of childhood trauma and how to begin the healing journey. Ingrid is the author of Unmasked:  A Triumphant Memoir of Recovery from Childhood Trauma, Eating Disorder, and PTSD where she tells her story of finding the courage to face her trauma and reach a level of joy and fulfillment in her life that she never knew was possible. 

On this episode, Ingrid and I discuss the nature of trauma and the connection between childhood trauma, physical symptoms, and mental health. Ingrid also shares insight into the phenomenon of delayed trauma release in later life and how she was able to use her intuition to identify and heal from it. 

Several take aways from this episode will help you to cope with the pain of childhood trauma and eating disorders. Listen in to learn how healing is possible.

• Hold and feel your trauma to release it
• Inner child meditation is key
• Give yourself grace 
• Growth mindset
