No one can tear you down like yourself can. I was raised to be confident and self-assured, and so it is with an open chest and my head held high that I've been able to experience most of my life. But, I have had many many moments where I have been less than happy about the way I look and how I felt in my body. From puberty, to shithead classmates, to well-meaning family, and unenthusiastic romance, I dig through my journey with body image and self-esteem issues. I discuss the pressures I felt to hide these struggles and the distress caused by doing so. I will also share how I managed these issues and was able to find security and assuredness from within.

As always, I'd love to hear your thoughts on this episode and any ideas or questions you may have on this topic. Also, feel free to message me with suggestions for future episodes or questions you'd like answered. And if this episode inspires you to do nothing else at all, I hope that it may serve as a prompt to open discussion with yourself or others. Enjoy!
