Jaynee: Part 1 of 3
In today's episode, Dr. Jaynee Paulson shares her story of overcoming an eating disorder and how it has shaped her life today. We also talk about:
"I'm never going to allow this to keep happening in my life, to feel like I'm less than or not good enough and continue on that generational trauma. Like I'm good. I can move on from this because I can't give her that. Like, I'm never going to achieve what it would take."
"My children think I put the stars in the sky. They think that I hung the moon, just for them - and no one has the right to tell them differently."

Welcome to Part One of my conversation with Dr. Jaynee Poulson. In this episode, we talk about some of the dangers of generational trauma. She shares the story about the very first time she ever heard her mother say the words, “I Love You”. By this time, Jaynee was a grown adult… and sadly, her mother wasn’t even addressing her when she said it. This occasion did help Jaynee gain a better understanding of how to set boundaries for herself and it would become a pivotal moment for her learning to start loving herself and practicing self-care.
Jaynee also talks about her eating disorder and how, after celebrating the twenty-second anniversary of her recovery, anorexia and bulimia are still impacting her life and relationships.
Lastly, the two of us also talk about the importance of connection and living our most authentic life.
YOUR FEEDBACK: I’m always interested in hearing comments from listeners. This week, I am asking you to share your thoughts on what your biggest challenge is when it comes to authenticity, connection, and healing?
