I'm joined by Ivy Felicia, The Body Relationship Coach. This is part 1 of our two-part discussion on navigating the evolving relationship we have with our bodies as we age. In this first part we're talking about our challenges with our aging bodies, how our relationship with our bodies has shifted, what messages we internalized about aging when we were growing up, and what we love about aging.
