In today’s episode I want to start the conversation of body shaming and learning how to carry our bodies and our minds toward body positivity. Of course there is a lot to unpack and it will take multiple episodes to do this, consider this the first episode, the conversation has to start somewhere.
As women, we get to choose to live in our truth of body positivity. Especially if we have daughters who are looking to us for advice when they hit that late elementary/middle school phase of body shaming. This can be true of our sons too.
My body is not built the same as someone else’s and that’s okay. We are supposed to be different. Another thing that irks me and I have learned to give grace for over the last year is, our system isn’t set up to properly educate others on the body types of different cultures. There are some influencers out there who have large followings of suburban white females and so they chant these ideas of if I can lose weight and look like this, you can too.
Join in on my journey toward body positivity and what I learned from Brene Brown and Sonya Renee Taylor.
