“Nobody ever asked me what happened. They only asked why.”

In this emotional clip from The True Form Podcast, Eating Disorder and Trauma-Informed Specialist Sammie Lee shares the moment her healing truly began — when someone finally asked the right question.

This conversation dives into:
 – Why the question “what happened to you?” is more powerful than “what’s wrong with you?”
 – How our medical and mental health systems often miss the mark
 – The role of presence, compassion, and deep listening in trauma recovery

If you or someone you know is navigating disordered eating, trauma, or recovery,  this is a must-watch moment.
