This is a lengthy solo episode that has two parts.

First, I share with you about a breakthrough I had at a women's retreat this past weekend about speaking my truth and my commitment moving forward to trust my voice.

The second part is a result of that breakthrough.

I am talking about something that has been on my mind but I haven't talked much about before today out of fear of being too polarizing.

And that is how I believe the work I am doing falls under social justice and women's rights. I am an accidental activist and believe that freeing women up from body shame and food obsession is an act of feminism.

The problem is not your body. The problem is the culture that makes you believe something is wrong with you if you do not look like a Barbie doll.

I mention this podcast in the episode and for more context on what I am talking about, check it out: https://unladylike.co/episodes/020/equal-rights-amendment

I reference quotes from the book "The Beauty Myth" by Naomi Wolf
