We’ve all been there: one day you feel confident, glowing, and unstoppable, and the next you’re spiraling in front of the mirror, convinced you’ve “fallen off.” That’s body image whiplash, and it’s way more common than you think.
In this episode of Stella Going Stellar, I dive into why our self-image swings so drastically, the hidden triggers (from hormones to body checking to social media), and the real cost of living in that constant up-and-down cycle. Backed by research and my own experiences with bodybuilding, dieting, and confidence, I’ll give you practical strategies to break free, like anchoring to what your body does instead of how it looks, reducing body checking, tracking your cycle, and practicing self-compassion.
If you’ve ever felt like your confidence disappears overnight, this episode will help you see the truth: your worth hasn’t changed, even when your perception has.
