“You can lose the weight, but still carry the pain.”

In this powerful episode of The True Form Podcast, I sit down with Sammie Lee—a highly respected Eating Disorder and Trauma-Informed Specialist, author, coach, and speaker—whose mission is to dismantle stigma, shift societal narratives, and guide people back to their worth.

Sammie shares her raw and personal story—from childhood trauma and food addiction to extreme weight loss and the long road to healing. But more importantly, she reveals what recovery truly requires: deep inner work, nervous system safety, and reconnecting with the body, rather than another diet plan.

We explore:
– Why food was never the real problem
– The missing conversations in eating disorder treatment
– How hospitals and health systems often fail those who need help most
– The body’s role in healing trauma (and how it stores memory)
– How to empower yourself and your children to feel safe in their bodies
– Why core values matter, and how to find yours

This isn’t just an episode, it’s a transformative conversation. If you've ever struggled with shame, self-worth, or the pressure to “fix” your body, Sammie’s wisdom will shift how you see weight, healing, and what it means to truly come home to yourself.
