The Body Image Revolution

In this episode, I’m joined by Lizzie Fischer, an intuitive eating counselor and recreational therapist specializing in body image, for a conversation about all the ways we learn to disconnect from and control our bodies. We talk eating disorders and orthorexia, religion and purity culture, the pressure to be a “good girl,” when “health” becomes an obsession, beauty standards, self-trust, and finding your own way back to your body.

What if healing isn't about fixing yourself, but reconnecting with yourself?

In this episode of The Body Image Revolution, I sit down with trauma-informed facilitator Jenna Zadaka for a beautiful conversation about embodiment, self-trust, body image, pleasure, and what it really means to feel at home in your body.

Together, we explore how somatics, yoga, spirituality, and Jewish mystical wisdom can help us reconnect with ourselves and create a deeper sense of safety, wholeness, and belonging.

It's a solo episode! In this episode, I share a bit about my own journey and the season of life I'm in right now as I recently closed my photography studio. I dive into what I've learned over the years about self-trust, uncertainty tolerance, and the tendency to attach our confidence and worth to things outside of ourselves. We explore what these lessons have taught me about business, body image, and navigating change with a deeper sense of grounded confidence. ♥

In this episode of The Body Image Revolution, I sit down with my client Danya for one of the most honest and powerful conversations I’ve had on the podcast yet.

We talk about what it’s like to be deeply self-aware, to have done years of healing, certifications, therapy, embodiment work… and still feel like there’s a gap between what you know and how you actually feel in your body.

Danya opens up about her journey through eating disorders, spirituality, healing, comparison, family dynamics, body image, and ultimately what shifted for her inside The New Sexy Awakening. This conversation is raw, nuanced, emotional, and deeply human.

We explore grounded confidence, redefining beauty, learning to exist in your body without constantly questioning yourself, and what happens when healing stops being performative and actually begins to land.

I know so many women are going to see themselves in this one. ♥

In this episode, I’m joined by therapist Rachel Tuchman to explore what’s often missing from the body image conversation.

We talk about why body complaints are so rarely just about appearance, and how stress, grief, nervous system overwhelm, and life transitions all shape the way we experience our bodies. We also discuss a gap that still exists in many therapy spaces when it comes to addressing body image directly and somatically, even though so many women are quietly struggling with it.

We share what it looks like to move through changing relationships with your body across different stages of life, how to support kids growing up in diet culture today, and what it’s been like navigating the body-positivity space as Jewish women after October 7th, 2023.

This is an honest, grounded look at what body image healing actually looks like in real life.

In today’s episode, we’re talking about something that comes up constantly in the world of body image healing: why people feel so entitled to comment on other people’s bodies. Seriously, people say the stupidest sh*t sometimes, and it can be so frustrating and painful, especially when appearance is already such a tender subject.

I’m diving into the deeper psychological and cultural reasons these comments happen, from diet culture conditioning to anxiety, comparison, power, and inherited scripts that people never question. Not to excuse it, but so you can finally feel in your bones that it was never about you.

And most importantly, we’re talking about what it actually takes to stop carrying what was never yours in the first place, and how real body confidence is built from the inside out.

In this episode, I’m joined by Alyssa Goldwater, author, plus size advocate, and such a powerful voice in the Jewish Orthodox world.

Alyssa shares her personal story of unlearning diet culture, healing her relationship with her body, and what it really looks like to step into acceptance and freedom.

We also talk about the beautiful work she’s doing through her children’s book Every Body Is, and how we can begin raising kids with a completely different foundation than the one so many of us grew up with.

This conversation is honest, grounding, and full of hope. I’m so glad you’re here for it.

In this episode, I’m sharing an excerpt from a live workshop I co-hosted with healer and teacher Raizel Devorah Masail called The Art of Seeing Light. We explore why so many women can see the beauty in others but struggle to see it in themselves, and how that disconnect impacts confidence, sensuality, and spiritual connection. This conversation weaves together body image, spirituality, and femininity, and invites you to see the body not as something to fix or bypass, but as the portal to deeper connection and light.

In this episode, I sit down with my client Adi, a creative entrepreneur and single mom who hustled for years before joining The New Sexy. We talk about what it means to stop hustling for worthiness, come home to the body, and release the self-criticism that once drove everything. We also explore the coaching industry, shame, and what becomes available when you start caring for yourself from a place of love instead of trying to prove yourself.

In this episode, I have the honor of speaking with my client Zipporah Ruth, an embodiment coach for women. She decided to join The New Sexy after noticing challenging thoughts about her body, including moments when she even considered plastic surgery, thoughts that didn’t align with how she wanted to see herself or who she knew herself to be.

In our conversation, we explore the unexpected gap she uncovered in her healing, the subtle ways deservingness and self-fixing were still influencing her choices, and what shifted for her inside TNS that helped her trust herself again and feel at true peace with her body exactly the way it is.

This episode is an honest look at knowing your worth and looking confident vs. actually feeling it in your body.
