In this raw, soul-expanding conversation, Hope sits down with Registered Dietitian, trauma-informed coach, and unapologetic truth-teller Alex Long to explore the kind of healing that goes far beyond food, macros, or “health rules.” 

This episode dives straight into the heart of what it really takes to reconnect with your body, reclaim your intuition, and meet the deepest parts of yourself with compassion instead of control.

Alex shares her powerful journey from years of disordered eating, perfectionism, and self-suppression to embodying freedom, sovereignty, and a radically different relationship with herself. Together, we unpack the physical, emotional, and spiritual layers of healing, and the ways that patriarchy, conditioning, and “good girl” programming disconnect women from their power.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in cycles of burnout, self-criticism, body shame, or emotional avoidance… this conversation will feel like oxygen.

We go there.
Shadow work.
Feminine and masculine polarity.
The wounds that shape our relationships.
The sweetness of finally letting yourself receive.
And the remembering of your own inner light.

This episode will leave you cracked open in the best way,  clear, grounded, and more connected to your intuition than ever.

✨ What We Dive Into

  • How healing your relationship with food is actually healing your relationship with yourself
  • The deeper spiritual reason so many women feel the urge to shrink, restrict, or silence themselves
  • Using intuition as a real, embodied sense, not just a “gut feeling”
  • How shadow work transforms your relationship with your body, your identity, and your purpose
  • The link between disordered eating, nervous system dysregulation, trauma responses, and emotional suppression
  • What it means to stop “taking up less space”, and actually reclaim your voice
  • The inner child, protector parts, and why compassion (not control) creates lasting change
  • Feminine/masculine dynamics, people-pleasing patterns, hyper-independence, and our collective wounds
  • Why receiving — love, support, care — is one of the hardest and most necessary pieces of women’s healing
  • How patriarchal conditioning impacts the way women set boundaries, ask for help, and own their needs
  • What it looks like to love yourself through the darkness, not just once you’re “healed”

If you’re craving a conversation that speaks to your whole self — mind, body, soul, and energy — this is it.
