  • Beautiful Anyway: When Your Body Carries a Story You Didn't Choose
    When illness, surgery, scars, or weight changes leave your body looking different, accepting what you see in the mirror isn't always easy. You may find yourself criticizing the very body that carried you through some of life's hardest experiences.

    Dr. Teresa A. Smith, Dr. TAS, explores how faith, gratitude, and self-acceptance can help you reconsider your relationship with your body. This TAS Moment invites you to recognize that your worth hasn't diminished because your body has changed, and that your story deserves appreciation rather than judgment.

  • Planning a Future With People Who Still See the Old You
    What happens when the people who supported you through one season struggle to accept who you are becoming?

    Growth can change your boundaries, relationships, plans, and even your sense of belonging. In this TAS Moment, Dr. Teresa A. Smith explores what happens when moving forward means making room for a future that no longer includes the old version of you.

    You do not have to shrink your future to remain recognizable to people who are more comfortable with your past. Consider what you would choose for your next season if you did not have to explain your growth to anyone.
