“She grew up in an authoritarian religious family of emotional eaters. Which would result in her becoming an extremely accomplished, but emotionally suppressed, young woman. Memories of gifts of sugar treats taught her to care for herself with food. She now agrees that the mental food cycle is craziness. Are you ready to be done with the craziness? Are you ready to finally trust yourself with food? Then tune in and begin your journey to release yourself from decades of self-disrespect and self-denial. This is Cassie Christopher one amazingly self-aware, confident, and fun, up-and-coming F50Woman.”
