Ancestral and Cultural Trauma Surrounding Diet and Body Image with Krista Day-Gloe, LCSW

Today we are talking with Krista Day-Gloe, who is a licensed clinical social worker. She started working with children and realized the nutritional component, they would come in all over the place and it was because they weren't nourished and they were essentially hangry. That's when she realized that there is this mind body connection and she began researching how to become a dietitian. She ended up discovering  a residential treatment center for eating disorders, where she worked with mostly woman.  Eventually she turned to private practice and that's where she is now. Her husband became sick with chronic health issues and food intolerance and she began to devour mind/body and realizing how important it is. Can't treat as separate entities, but rather integrate it and think of it has a highway and rather then have each doctor, therapist, health coach stay in their own lane, they should all merge and work together.  It's a process and you've got to take small steps. Ancestral/Cultural Trauma is when a group of people have a negative long lasting experience which undermines values and purpose of their world views and manifest into hopelessness and despair. To hear more on this topic and how we can communicate better with our children take a listen.
