331: 6 steps to overcome body image issues when 'body positivity' doesn't work for you

Over the years, I've struggled with accepting my body and dealing with the pressures of societal norms. 'Body positivity' didn't work for me.

Inspired by a heartfelt message from a longtime listener, I decided to tackle why this topic continues to be so important to us. I've spent years consumed by trying to "fix" my body, but I've reached a point where I can say I've healed from that constant journey. While I still care about staying fit and vibrant, I'm no longer spending my days' energy on fixing my body.

In this episode, I shared 6 insights that have forever changed my perspective on body image, along with actionable tips that have helped me.

So, if you are navigating your own journey with body image, I hope these insights resonate with you and help you on your own path to self-acceptance. As we drag these limiting beliefs into the light, they often lose their power over us. Please share this episode with someone who can use it.
