On today’s episode I sit down with my colleague Ailey Jolie, a Registered Clinical Counsellor practicing in Vancouver BC. Together we have a conversation about how early childhood traumas impacted her relationship with her food and her body, experiences in the entertainment industry and child trafficking.  Ultimately, this episode is about a woman and her journey on accepting and becoming herself.
