Body Image: A Civil War (Eating Disorder Recovery and Self-Hate)


Listen Later

Content Advisory: This episode includes conversation on eating disorders. Listener discretion is advised.

Ashley and Bailee dive into Ashley’s personal journey with body image and eating disorder recovery, shaped by her experience in the evangelical church. They unpack how small bodies were celebrated, larger ones exiled, and how church teachings fed shame, perfectionism, and severe restriction.
From subtle comments about appearance to the pressure to shrink oneself to fit a spiritual ideal, they explore the long-lasting impact of these messages — and why reclaiming self-worth and body acceptance is a radical act.
