Notice anything different?? It's a whole new podcast! I've decided to completely quit my business and start a new venture. Part of that process includes shedding the body acceptance label and giving myself the freedom to talk about whatever I want! 

I'll explain the changes & my reason behind making them in this episode.

Have you ever been sober-curious, or at least questioned the role alcohol plays in your life? 

I know I definitely have. More than once. In fact, I had a moment this weekend where I was laying on the couch hungover where I thought, “why do I subject myself to this?”

So in this episode, let’s chat about: 

• My family history with alcohol. Whether or not it was acceptable to drink, and where that led me in my adult life 

Will I choose to become sober? Listen to the episode to find out! 

If you appreciate the content I put out, and you wanna support me in continuing to create even more, you can do so by either: 

• Interacting with my content through likes, comments, shares, and reviews

• Purchasing one of my products (the Body Acceptance Book, or the upcoming Body Acceptance Workbook)

• Tipping me using the virtual tip jar powered by Converkit.

Welcome to another episode of the Body Acceptance Podcast! In this episode, we’ll discuss how the way you view your body impacts your self-worth. Then I’ll share 3 unique ways you can begin to improve your self-worth without having to change your appearance. 

By the way, if you haven’t already you can download my free Body Acceptance guide that’ll help you navigate the journey of learning to connect with and treat your body with respect. You can download that by clicking here. 

Here’s the mantra mentioned in the episode. Feel free to write it down, put it where you’ll see it, and remind yourself often until it becomes deeply ingrained: 

“Even though I don’t like the way I look at the moment, I am still worthy of love and respect. And I can still choose to treat my body and mind with love and respect in this moment”

This year has been a pretty challenging one for me when it comes to body image. There were things that resurfaced after I gained a significant amount of weight in 2020. Things I thought I’d already worked through, but as we know--the work is never done. 

I even changed my brand from All or Something Living to Body Acceptance so I could really share and document what my journey has been like. And halfway through the year I wrote a book called Body Acceptance. 

So where am I currently at when it comes to body image? What are the things I’ve realized get in the way of feeling good in my body, and what helps me feel more connected and in tune with myself? 

I’ll be sharing the answer to those questions, and much more in this week’s episode of the Body Acceptance Podcast!

Do you ever eat large amounts of food all at once and feel totally out of control while doing it? 

Many people come to me sharing their stories around binge eating, eating emotionally, and just feeling overall out of control around food.

Binge eating may not sound like a big deal on the surface, but it can lead to destructive emotions and behaviors, negative health outcomes, and maybe even a full blown eating disorder. 

In this episode I share: 

• The textbook definition of binge eating

Here are the links mentioned in this episode: 

• Intuitive Eating Book

After you listen to the episode, come share the one thing that surprised you the most. You can tag me in your stories, posts, or shoot me a DM on Instagram @laurenmkendrick 

Enjoy the episode!
