“What Happened to You?” The Question That Changed Everything | Sammie Lee on Trauma & Recovery
About this episode
“Nobody ever asked me what happened. They only asked why.”
In this emotional clip from The True Form Podcast, Eating Disorder and Trauma-Informed Specialist Sammie Lee shares the moment her healing truly began — when someone finally asked the right question.
This conversation dives into:
– Why the question “what happened to you?” is more powerful than “what’s wrong with you?”
– How our medical and mental health systems often miss the mark
– The role of presence, compassion, and deep listening in trauma recovery
If you or someone you know is navigating disordered eating, trauma, or recovery, this is a must-watch moment.
