If you’ve ever worried that people will think you’ve “let yourself go” after gaining weight, you’re not alone. The fear of judgment—especially for perfectionists—can feel paralyzing. But what if the real question isn’t about letting yourself go, but about letting yourself live? In this episode, we’ll unpack the deeper fear behind judgment, why avoiding judgment can actually make it feel worse, and how learning to cope with judgment (instead of avoiding it) is the key to true confidence. Plus, I’ll share a powerful shift in perspective that helped me—and so many others—stop living in fear of what people might say.
