Body dissatisfaction is affecting nearly half of young people in Australia, even keeping them from going to school. Scary statistics, so Annaliese and Tegan dig deep to discuss their own struggles with body shame and how comments about food played a significant role in their childhood.

Determined not to pass on the same food trauma or triggering conversations, Annaliese speaks with nutritionist Lyndi Cohen to discover the best language to use with children.

Plus, Sarah Marie offers some relatable advice for dealing with a tricky mother-in-law situation.
