In this episode, I’m joined by Johanna for a grounded, honest conversation about body image, self-trust, and what alignment actually feels like, not as a concept, but as a lived experience in the body.
Johanna shares her personal story of being shamed for having a strong, muscular body and how moments like that can quietly disconnect women from themselves. We talk about how body shame fractures trust, how external voices get louder than our own, and what it takes to gently rebuild a relationship with your body during seasons of grief, transition, or rebuilding.
This conversation isn’t about fixing your body, following rules, or striving for perfection. It’s about learning to listen again. About recognizing when something feels off. And about understanding alignment not as discipline or performance, but as an inner sense of truth, safety, and self-respect.
If you’re in a season where your body feels unfamiliar or you’re learning how to trust yourself again, this episode is an invitation to come back, gently.
