TW: eating disorders and sexual abuse.
Today, Lauren Sheehey joins us on the CURED Collective Podcast for a special episode. During her third appearance on the show, she taps into radical honesty and vulnerability in the hopes of erasing stigma, providing hope, and calling others forward into recovery and reclamation.
Lauren is a trauma-informed coach, writer, and mother. She is also the co-founder of WTHN, a transformative group coaching program that she runs with Joe. Like many experts, she developed her niche with the influence of her personal experiences. In today’s episode, she opens up for the first time about what her personal history has truly entailed.
Lauren speaks to her lifelong eating disorder, as well as her own version of recovery; which she aptly names, “The Uncovery.” The theme of this episode, and of her recovery, is one of unlocking her voice: when she first lost it, key moments that highlight the estrangement, and what finally helped her restore it. As a survivor of sexual abuse and sexual assault, Lauren turns a corner in her healing by speaking to the impact of those experiences today.
Lauren also shares her perspective on the triphasic nature of healing, as well as the type of treatments available for those who suffer from eating disorders and sexual trauma. The episode ends with a description of how she is attributing meaning to her experiences and finding significance in service; for which WTHN is the conduit and the container.

“I'm not trying to understand why those things happened, I'm trying to understand how I move forward with them and how I integrate them into who I am today.” – Lauren Sheehey
