The Importance of Knowing Your Food Story with Leila Lutz
Episode 33
Tuesday, 14 January, 2025

In this powerful solo episode, Leila Lutz delves deep into the importance of understanding your personal "food story" - the beliefs, patterns, and experiences that have shaped your relationship with food. Drawing from her own transformative journey, Leila shares how her lifelong struggle with under-eating and high-achieving behaviour stemmed from a complex web of family dynamics, trauma, and the need to create safety and security.Leila candidly explores how her background as the eldest daughter in a chaotic, financially-strained household influenced her tendency to push food aside in pursuit of constant achievement. She unpacks the addictive nature of adrenaline and cortisol, and how this "busy" mindset kept her from truly nourishing herself.With raw vulnerability, Leila also reveals the generational trauma and beliefs around food that were passed down from her mother's own difficult upbringing. This powerful insight underscores Leila's unique approach to coaching, which emphasizes the critical role of self-parenting and taking responsibility for one's own healing.Throughout the episode, Leila offers listeners a glimpse into her personal process of uncovering and addressing these deep-seated patterns, highlighting the importance of consistent self-care, mindful eating, and creating a life of balance and connection. Her story serves as a powerful testament to the transformative power of understanding your food story and the courage to rewrite it.In this episode:Understanding Your Food Story The Impact of Under-Eating The Role of Stress and AdrenalineThe Journey to Balanced EatingAddressing Addiction and Overachievement The Influence of Family Beliefs The Importance of Self-Parenting The Role of Coaching and Therapy The Emotional Impact of Food Encouragement for Healing.The book mentioned is “In the Realms of Hungry Ghosts” by Dr Gabor Mate and is a must read.Sign up for Leila’s FREE Insights Course at www.thebodyneverlies.com.auConnect with Leila:WebsiteInstagram @leilalutzMentioned in this episode:Free InsightsUncover the root cause of your unexplained symptoms, with a scientifically proven, self assessment tool. https://thebodyneverlies.com.au/insights-courseFree Insights Jan25
