Ep 156: My Relationship with My Body


Listen Later

As with most women, my relationship with my body has been a complicated one. Until recently, I never truly felt comfortable in my own body. I have yo-yoed with my weight for most of my adult life, and I carried old beliefs about my body that started in childhood. In this episode, I share how my relationship with my body has evolved throughout my life, and the changes I have made in the past year that have completely shifted how I feel.

Many of you are brilliant, high-achieving women who excel in your careers, show up powerfully in your families, and lead with confidence. Yet when it comes to your relationship with your body, you might feel stuck or defeated. But your body struggles don't negate your brilliance. They don't mean that you're weak or you're lacking willpower, but often that you're carrying around old beliefs about your body that you formed when you were younger.

If I can change the way that I see and live in my body, you can too–and it's never too late to start. At the age of 52, I am finally able to love being in my body. Your body is your home for this one beautiful life, and it deserves your love, care, and partnership in becoming a favorite version of you.
