Your body is Not a Report Card

In this episode, we dive deep into the idea that 'your body is not a report card.' This topic is inspired by a bonus episode we did on Patreon over the summer called “How do you make peace with weight gain?” that really hit home for a lot of people. Today, we discuss how societal norms and ingrained cultural messages have led many to view their bodies as a reflection of their worth and value. We’ll dive into the harmful implications of this mindset, the impact of fat phobia, discrimination, and the importance of taking morality out of body image conversations. We also explore strategies to help you cultivate body neutrality and protect your mental health in a judgmental world.
