Free Spirit Academy Podcast
Welcome to the Free Spirit Academy Podcast. Free Spirit Academy is about the freedom to be fully who you are - beyond any cultural conditioning, trauma, or roles you were taught to play.
It’s about coming home to your body, and to yourself.
My name is Rande Moss. I’m a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, and I’m so glad you’re here for these talks and conversations.

How Trauma Impacted My Relationship With Food and My Body
If you’ve been listening for any length of time, you know I believe that food struggles are never just about food.
They’re often symptoms of something deeper - like trying to feel some sense of control after trauma or long-term stress, trying to survive in a culture that profits off us hating our bodies, or simply trying to make living inside ourselves bearable.
This episode touches on:
- My 15+ year struggle with food control and binge eating.
- The impact of religious trauma, diet, and wellness culture, and untrue beliefs about myself.
- The tricky intersection of chronic health symptoms and eating disorders.
- Why food challenges aren't just a "willpower issue."
If any of this resonates, know you’re not broken - and you’re not alone.
