  • Body Size: the Last Frontier of Diversity and Inclusion with Andrea Westbrook

    How do our feelings about bodies (ours and other people’s) shape our experience of the world? Weight stigma is a real force in our society and affects us all – whether we’re tackling body images issues or not.

    In this episode of the She Mentors podcast, Mindset and Confidence coach Andrea Westbrook discusses how transforming the way we think about bodies that don’t fit society’s notion of 'ideal' is the key to conquering our fears, overcoming negative self-talk and reconnecting to our own confidence.

    “I think there's a perception that you can control it. But it's so complicated. And there's so many things that contribute to a person how a person carries and holds on to weight that it is not just around how you eat, which is the main message we get. So we do think it is controllable. But in reality, it's a lot more complicated than that.

    “It could be ability, it's genetics. It's your mental health. Or there's apparently there's something like 59 different factors that can feed into how a person holds and carries their weight.”

    We discuss 

    👉 Growing up with body image issues and ‘feeling different’
    👉 How body size discrimination presents in the workplace
    👉 Identifying the fears that are holding you back (rejection, judgement, failure, etc)
    ​​👉 How to tap into your confidence and self-worth
    👉 Positioning yourself as a leader
