Episode 220: The thing everyone gets wrong about body image


Listen Later

We’ve been conditioned to believe that only women in bigger bodies struggle with food and body image—but what if that’s completely wrong?

In this episode, I’m breaking down why body image issues and disordered eating aren’t exclusive to any one body type. You’ll hear real stories from women in smaller bodies who still struggle, despite fitting the cultural "ideal." 

Inside this episode:

  • Why we assume weight loss = happiness (and why it’s not that simple)
  • The hidden struggles of women in smaller bodies
  • What photos and your friends' complaints about their bodies reveal about your own beliefs
  • How to comment about someone’s appearance without talking about their size or shape

This conversation is about more than just food—it’s about the way we, as women, see ourselves and each other. If this episode resonates, share it with a friend.
