I am very excited to share today’s episode!! A few weeks ago, I had the chance to speak with Ryley Gordon, who works within the social media space creating content focused on body image, body positivity, and holistic health.
We had such a real & honest conversation where we talked about times in our lives when we have felt stuck, how we have learned to let go of perfectionism, and even our recent break-ups. I am really proud of this episode, so I really encourage you all to listen :)
