Flourish

The pandemic has touched so much of our lives, including our body image. While the stay-at-home orders may have provided a welcomed break from body talk and anxiety for some women, body image issues have been ongoing and worsening for others.

In either case, as more “post-pandemic firsts” begin to pop up—weddings, beach vacations, family reunions—body image anxiety is creeping up for many women as well. Maybe you’ve experienced body changes. Maybe you feel disconnected from your body. In this episode, Claire validates the experience of post-pandemic body image anxiety and offers actionable strategies for moving forward.

We've all heard the saying before: "The world isn't black and white." But for most of us, seeing the world in gray isn't as easy at it seems. 

In this episode, Claire defines black and white thinking and explores why we tend to want to mold the world into these boxes. This explorations helps to understand why the black and white nature of diets feels so tempting. Once we've understood how diets use this frame of thinking, she helps us to recognize these tendencies in our approach to non-dieting and how to avoid them.

Meal prepping is one of the most common New Year's resolutions we see members strive for. But while the intentions behind meal prep may be positive, it is not a second nature habit. Meal prep might feel overwhelming, too time consuming, or you may just get sick of eating the same boring meal everyday.

At Flourish, we believe in the power of meal prep. We believe it can help nourish one's body in a way that serves them and can actually be enjoyable. In this episode, Claire shares her dos and don'ts for meal prep so you can approach this habit in an exciting and sustainable way.

Studies show that 80% (yes...you read that correctly) of New Year's resolutions fail. Why is this? We know that resolutions are set with good intentions and that we don't set out planning to leave our goals behind. 

Just because New Years Resolutions haven’t worked before doesn’t mean we have to give up on setting goals entirely. It just means we need to approach them in a different way. Whether you're crafting your New Year's resolutions or setting goals in general, this podcast episode is for you. 

In this episode, Claire shares the common mistakes she's seen women make when setting goals and how to avoid them.

The past nine months have been no joke. COVID-19 has caused global trauma, prolonged stress, and new ways of life. While the internet may be flooded with "Quarantine-15" jokes, we know that deep down body changes can make us feel a variety of emotions, least of all humor. If you're struggling with your own body changing, we're here to tell you that you are not alone.

In this episode, Claire explores the root cause of why so many of us are experiencing body changes during the pandemic. She challenges us to question how our response to these changes affects our well-being and helps us find ways to show ourselves kindness no matter the changes our bodies experience.
