Jackie Freitag fought against her body and her eating habits for over 13 years. In this book, she describes her profound experiences with constant attempts at dieting, binge eating, anorexia, bulimia, and compulsive exercise, and impressively tells how she finally managed to make peace with herself and her body.
Jackie Freitag has been following her heart’s calling for several years now: In her successful online coaching program “Soulfood,” she accompanies women on their way back to a self-determined life. In this book, she combines all her knowledge from her own experience and her work experience with thousands of women.
The book is intended to give courage and hope to those who are affected by eating disorders. It intends to give them support in giving up the fight against themselves and to accompany them on their way toward a peaceful life.
Jackie Freitag’s fight against herself began in her childhood. After the difficult circumstances in her parental home got out of hand, Jackie found solace in food and sport from the age of 10. A long ordeal followed, during which she suffered from eating disorders for a total of 13 years, including bulimia, binge eating, and even anorexia. In 2014, she found her footing in the fitness scene. Jackie set up her own business as a certified fitness trainer (A license) and certified nutritionist (A license). However, then came the great awakening and her first leap of consciousness, which made her rethink her entire life. Because what is often concealed in the fitness scene are the problems and downsides behind all the admiration! There are constant ups and downs: metabolic problems, binge eating, weight gain, psychologic pressure, mood swings, and the resulting eating disorders. But nobody wants to talk about these things or come out of the closet. After her “awakening,” Jackie dedicated herself to her years-long battle against herself to find out what was really behind it, what the causes were, and where this relentless craving for recognition and admiration from the “outside” actually originated. The beginning of a long, deep, and instructive inner healing journey began. After years of self-analysis and emotional self-care, she analyzed her behavior, changed her habits, worked through her traumas, continued her education (including psychotherapy, trauma processing, inner child work, neuroplasticity, brain functions, personality development, and spirituality), trained as a yoga teacher, and healed her soul and body from the inside out. Since the end of 2019, as a former sufferer, she has been helping people to end the struggle with themselves, their bodies, and food. Today, Jackie Freitag is a speaker at events, an author, and a missionary with a big vision: She wants to bring people back to their full power, enable them to rediscover their inner glow, and promote their full potential. Together with her team, consisting of former sufferers, coaches, nutritionists, psychologists, and doctors, she has already been able to accompany over 1500 people in recent years on their journey toward a new lease on life.
