In this episode, Jenny and John chat with Dr. Gabrielle Fundaro. She breaks down the key differences between improving appearance (aesthetic changes) versus improving body image (self perception)—and why it matters. We explore how fitness professionals can help clients shift their focus from aesthetics to true well-being, the role of emotional health in body image, and practical strategies for fostering lasting, meaningful change. Whether you're a coach or on your own health journey, this conversation will challenge the way you think about fitness and self-perception.
