Can we talk about body grief? [feat. Brianna Campos]

We talk a lot about body image, but do we really know what it is? It’s a tough question because a lot of us might have been “sitting in the suck” for so long that it’s hard not to have a negative bias about body image when we look at ourselves in the mirror.   Simply put, “sitting in the suck” sucks. So what can we do about it?   You guys, you’re in for a real treat with this episode. I’ve been such a long-time follower of my guest, Brianna (Bri) Campos, LPC. I’m always directing people to her Instagram account.   Bri is a licensed mental health counselor based in New Jersey. She is a body image educator and the founder of Body Image With Bri where she is passionate about all things body image and practices through the lenses of Health at Every Size® and Intuitive Eating—she is going to be one of your new favorite accounts, I can already tell! Utilizing a weight-inclusive approach, she combines her clinical skills and lived experience to teach others how to maneuver through their own unique body image journeys.   In this episode, we’ll get to know everything about this die-hard Jersey girl’s approach to the body-image conversation. We’ll chat about body grief, what it means, and why it’s more like an archaeological dig instead of a journey, when to confront friends and family about body health, addressing medical fat phobia in the healthcare system, and more!   So throw on your favorite cheetah print jacket and let’s dig ourselves out of the suck! 5 Step Guide Ad: FREE DOWNLOAD → The 5 Unskippable Steps To No Food Rules: https://nofoodrules.co/5unskippablestepsfreeguide Follow Colleen On: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/no.food.rules/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ColleenChristensen/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@no.food.rules?lang=en   Follow Brianna On: Instagram: @bodyimagewithbri   Episode Links: Medical Fat Phobia: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/medical-fatphobia-with-ragen-chastain/id1514443684?i=1000559305633 Healing the Medical Narrative: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/healing-the-medical-narrative/id1514443684?i=1000559323662
