Fuel Your Strength

Wear the Shorts


Listen Later

Warmer weather is creeping up on the northern hemisphere and summer will be here before you know it. With it – for many women – comes the fear of showing their bodies at the gym or beach. And so, the only logical solution is to keep everything covered to make others comfortable. Body shaming happens, but that shouldn't stop you from wearing what you want.

In this episode, I'm breaking down some important things to consider if and when you choose to hide your body for the comfort of others. Undoubtedly, this is a highly nuanced and layered conversation, but I'm hoping you can begin to sort through it by asking yourself some simple but important questions. In short, wear the shorts – or don't – this season, but do it because it's what you fully choose.
