So excited to bring you the second installment of our Dear Taylor series, where I’m offering my answers, thoughts or advice to the questions YOU ask. And today’s topic is a great one:

How do we balance personal growth with self acceptance? Do we have to keep growing all the time? Is there a limit to what we can achieve? How do you deal with the pressure to constantly be improving? When are you done growing?

I love EVERY part of this conversation, and if you’re into self development podcasts like this one, chances are, you will love this one too.

There is nothing (NOTH. ING.) wrong with changing how your body looks. But be honest with me— if I really pressed you to tell me WHY you are dead-set on changing how you look, would the answer be it’s because deep down, you want to change how you FEEL?

If you are on what feels like a lifelong quest in search of confidence, self-love, and inner peace with your body or yourself at large, but haven’t been able to actually get there yet, with those feelings just always seeming just a touch beyond your reach, this episode is for you.

We are discussing how changing your body has become messily intertwined with the expectation that it will result in changing how you FEEL about your body. Meaning: we believe the external appearance has to change first in order for our internal mindset to change.

This episode explains why that is 100% backwards, and how we can actually create what we REALLY want most for ourselves, right now.

Whether you’re injured or have some other unexpected life event pop up that is interfering with your training, these seasons can be tough.

How do you feel like you’re not losing all your progress? How do you adjust to a new normal? How do you not get defeated and dejected over being on the bench for a while?

This episode is all about how I’ve personally dealt with 8 months of being out of training, and what I recommend for anyone who is feeling their progress slow or stop for any reason at all.

I’m thrilled to bring you one of your most highly requested guests today: Neghar Fonooni.

Neghar is a CrossFitter, writer, artist, healer, intersectional feminist and spiritual advisor, who uses her work to empower women to reclaim their worthiness, power, and magic—to empower you to make autonomous choices for your body and your life, in a world that is hellbent on keeping you small.

We discuss everything from body autonomy, to life as an empath, to cursing, to personal style, to letting go of that which does not serve you, and so much more.

Be sure to follow her on the socials and see how you can work with her!
