Your Body Is Not The Problem

Our parents can play a HUGE role in our body image and today we get to learn from Ben, a trauma coach who focuses a lot of his work on childhood trauma/narcissistic parents.

We discuss:

• Wanting validation from our parents
• Why it's helpful to know whether or not our struggles came from childhood/were traumatic
• What types of childhood trauma can lead to poor body image
• What a dog whistle insult is

And SO much more!

We can't wait to hear your takeaways from today's episode. Please feel free to tag us on IG @Bencoleedwards and @_leahtang or feel free to DM us!

Today I share with you an Ah-ha moment I had when I was reflecting on the time that I binge ate back in 2018. I hope this episode is helpful and I look forward to hearing your thoughts!

Your body is not the problem!

63 comments on body image!!! I don't cover all of them in today's episode, because you should read the novel if you're interested but Mile High by Liz Tomforde had some great body image content!

Let me know if you decide to read it and what your thoughts are!

I forgot to mention that I rated the novel a 3.9/5! It would have been higher but there was a trope that I don't enjoy.

I had some new thoughts that I wanted to share with you to help you feel more comfortable wearing a bikini and or any bathing suit this year!

Your body is not the problem!

Here are the other episodes that I mentioned:

I discussed bikini shopping with special guest: Jennifer Kruse

Be Bikini Ready All Year Long

I heard it in a podcast I think from Andrew Huberman and it clicked in my brain when I related the information I learned to body image and so I wanted to share the information with you! I also share the books I've read so far this year AND some crazy (And disgusting) tea (gossip)!

Your body is not the problem!

Something I've been thinking about a lot lately as I chat with so many of you about your definition of healthy, is what does actually make food healthy? Is it what research says the food's benefits are? OR is it what happens to your body when you eat it?

Can't wait to hear you opinions on this!
