As your guides through the often treacherous terrain of body acceptance, we, Ashley and Brittani, bring you stories from the front lines, mixing personal tales with hard-hitting facts. Imagine confronting the mirror and seeing yourself, not through the lens of societal expectations, but through the eyes of love and acceptance. Our latest episode takes you on this transformative journey, examining the roots of body image issues and the rise of eating disorders with insights from the National Eating Disorder Association. We share our own encounters with diet culture, discuss the heart-wrenching reality of dissatisfaction in women and children, and shine a light on the dark intersection of fatphobia and healthcare.
Strap in for an honest exploration of body positivity and the myriad roads to cultivating self-love. Hear about my, Ashley's, path to embracing the diabetes-induced marks on my legs, and how that act of defiance against concealment sparked a deeper connection to self. We navigate the waters of personal choice, from fitness regimes to cosmetic procedures, and consider how these decisions impact our self-esteem. This episode isn't just about weight; it's about hair, skin, and all the other facets that shape our self-perception. It's a candid look at how vital it is to understand the 'whys' behind our confidence-boosting methods and ensuring they align with our true selves.
In our final thoughts, we open up about the vital role of mental health in the fitness industry and challenge the typical standards of beauty. Delve into the success of "Beyond the Body," a program that prizes mental health as much as physical health, and join me as I recount how boudoir photography played a pivotal role in reshaping my body positivity. We wrap things up with practical advice for those navigating the murky waters of self-acceptance, sharing how 'shadow work' and turning away from triggering media can lead to empowerment. So, tune in, get inspired, and embark on a path to embracing the beauty of being uniquely you.
