S4 E3: Overcoming your biggest physical insecurities through BOTH self-acceptance and self-care
Manage episode 498422765 series 3498525
Today, we're getting super vulnerable on the pod. You'll hear from your host (me, EmLed!!) along with three different guests who open up about their biggest physical insecurities and how they've worked to make peace with them.
We cover how to overcome insecurities like:
- Body dysmorphia
- Long nose/tribal nose
- Carrying weight in midsection
- Being too big
- Acne struggles
- Being too skinny
- Under-eye bags
- Being too short
- Small boobs
- Being too small
- Not fitting the beauty standard
- And so much more!
Thanks to our special guests Sully, Cait, and Kaylei for opening up and sharing their experiences!!
In today's day and age, we've got two main extreme schools of thought when it comes to body image:
- Ultra self-care to the point of perfecting ourselves and giving no grace to our human bodies
- Ultra self-acceptance to the point of neglecting our self-care totally and "letting ourselves go"
Most of us fall into one extreme or the other, but both land in the same feeling: hatred of our bodies.
The goal of this episode is to help you fall somewhere in the middle of these instead, offering yourself more grace, love, acceptance while ALSO giving you a push to take care of your health if you aren't.
Tune in if you need a reminder that you are not alone in struggling to love your body <3
