In this powerful episode of Holistic Health with Melissa, host Melissa Armstrong sits down with certified holistic health and life coach Melissa Rohlfs to explore the often-overlooked relationship we have with food and how childhood experiences shape our eating patterns well into adulthood.
Melissa Rohlfs shares her deeply personal journey from using food as a coping mechanism in childhood to developing binge eating patterns as an overwhelmed new mother. After being diagnosed with PTSD and discovering how her poor nutrition was affecting her mental health, she transformed her life through naturopathic care and eventually became passionate about helping other women do the same.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
- How childhood trauma and family dynamics create lasting food coping mechanisms
- The connection between nutrition, mood, and overall mental health
- Why “diet culture” keeps us trapped in cycles of judgment and shame around food
- The transformative power of replacing judgment with curiosity in your relationship with food
- Practical first steps to begin healing your relationship with food today
- Why awareness is the crucial first step in any healing journey
- The importance of creating time and space for self-reflection as busy moms
- How taking care of yourself first actually serves your children better
Melissa emphasizes that food is neither “good” nor “bad” – it simply either fuels your body or depletes your energy. The key is learning what works for your unique body and circumstances while approaching yourself with compassion and curiosity rather than harsh judgment.
This conversation is perfect for busy moms who recognize they’re using food to cope with stress, anyone struggling with their relationship with food, or those ready to break generational patterns and model healthier behaviors for their children.
