How Pauline Stopped Binging With Silke's Coaching Programme

I still remember Pauline’s closing words during our Clarity Call, just as she decided to join my 3-month coaching program. With her great sense of humor, she said:

“Well… good luck with me.”

I had to laugh, but I also felt the hopelessness behind her words. After so many past attempts, she was doubtful. Would this really be the program that brought her the food freedom she’d been searching for?

Pauline showed up with everything she had: her strength, her vulnerability, her doubt, her determination. And week by week, I witnessed a powerful transformation unfold.

She let go of perfectionism. She learned to speak kindly to herself. She discovered that she is more than enough, just as she is.

It was an honor to support her on this journey.

Today, Pauline is living proof of what’s possible when you choose to believe in yourself, just enough to try one more time. She’s a t rue inspiration.

Here’s what Pauline had to say about her experience:

"I learned to let go of perfectionism and speak kindly to myself. Gained insight into my reasons for binge eating and began to feel hope that I was, in fact, good enough exactly as I am. This was very powerful for me. Silke's program not only helped me stop binging but also gave me hope back."

"I found all coaching aspects very supportive. I loved the structure, the relaxation exercises, and especially the supportive, safe space where I felt able to be honest without being judged."

"Other programs focused on rules, plans, calories, etc., but not on the emotional aspects. I had seen psychologists years ago for eating disorders but wasn’t given any tools to help. I dug into the past and dredged everything up, then didn’t know what to do with it all."

"I’m now eating more mindfully and not stuffing or eating rapidly. I stop when I’m full and feel OK discarding leftovers. I’ve noticed more energy and improved mood. Bingeing is currently zero, and I feel equipped to handle bumps in the road. Letting go of perfectionism has been so liberating. I feel a huge sense of relief knowing I get to choose my beliefs now, not just live by the ones I learned as a child."

"What I’ll carry for life: Treating myself with kindness and compassion, and knowing that it’s imperative to set healthy boundaries with my loved ones, for their benefit as well as my own."

"Please give Silke a chance to show you it’s never too late. She was the catalyst in me turning my life around when I felt old and defeated and had given up. I was very sceptical about whether or not I could find peace with food after all these years, and I’m so grateful that I took the leap of faith to try coaching with her."

Pauline's journey is one of hope, courage, and real change. Her story is a reminder that true healing doesn’t come from more rules or restrictions, it comes from compassion, support, and learning how to reconnect with yourself again.
