“The universe sent Victoria’s podcast my way in just perfect timing. I have been struggling with poor body image and terrible food relationships, an eating disorder for about 20 years. I had a period of anorexia and food restriction and even after overcoming the severe restriction, my mind was still very much anorexic. I would shame myself for anything I ate, divided food into good and bad (or even poisonous) categories and exercise to punish myself for eating or to earn food.
After working with a therapist for two years learning to express and feel my feelings and emotions more and listening to my body, I found Victoria’s podcast. Listening to her story and her energy as she speaks I immediately knew I had to meet her. I loved the idea of working with someone who has been through similar struggles as far as poor body image, dieting and food relationship is concerned. After working with her for three months and going through the modules of her program (although I must admit I still have some modules to go through I listen to my body and work at my own pace) I have to say that I feel so much freedom around food, I don’t restrict anymore and I listen to my body. I feel at peace for the first time after a long, long time. My body image has improved drastically and even though I sometimes still notice old thoughts of shame and guilt trying to sneak into my mind, I now know how to work with them and refuse any bad language about myself or my body.
I would recommend working with Victoria to anyone struggling with an eating disorder and poor body image. Trust me, you are not too messed up to recover, I used to think I was the one recovery is not possible for and here I am now calling myself free from an eating disorder that has controlled 20 years of my life. I love how sincere Victoria is and her warmth makes me feel safe and comfortable to share anything.”
