In today’s episode of Non-Negotiable Living, Ashley has a raw and deeply important conversation about where confidence really begins and how it quietly erodes for girls far earlier than most parents realize. This episode explores how diet culture, body criticism, and appearance-focused language shape girls’ self-worth starting as young as childhood and how those messages follow them into adulthood.
This episode connects the dots between childhood body image struggles and the women many of us become later in life. Women who avoid photos, skip experiences with their kids, and feel shame around food and their bodies. Ashley offers practical and honest guidance on how to interrupt this cycle by modeling self-respect, balanced eating, strength-focused movement, and compassionate self-talk. If you are a mother, future mother, or a woman healing her own relationship with her body, this episode is a powerful reminder that confidence is taught through example and that changing how you speak to yourself today can change the story for the next generation.
