🛌 Body Image in the Bedroom with Lindsey Schafer & Catherine Tumminello


Listen Later

This week we are joined by Lindsey Schafer and Catherine Tumminello, two anti-diet aligned therapist who focus on body image issues. Lindsey and Catherine run a therapy group called "My Body in the Bedroom" for women who  struggle with body image, focusing on how negative body image can impact dating, relationships, and intimacy.  In this episode we talk about: 

  • How Lindsey and Catherine got involved in body image work 
  • How body image struggles impact dating, relationships, and intimacy 
  • Tips for folks who fear they aren't lovable in their current body
  • Handling rejection when dating without spiraling and blaming your body
  • How to navigate bad body image days
  • Tips for navigating sex and intimacy without being in your head about your body
  • What to do if body love and body acceptance feel impossible right now
  • Getting back into the dating game after your body has changed

Before diving into the interview with Lindsey and Catherine, we answer a listener question about whether or not it's possible to prioritize  nutrition without going "overboard."
