What if the way you feel about your body has nothing to do with your body - and everything to do with what you learned before you were old enough to question it?

Most of us can't pinpoint one moment we started hating our bodies, but understanding where it came from is one of the most powerful things you can do - for yourself, and for the little ones watching you.

In this episode, I'll share:

  • Why body image issues start earlier than you think (we're talking as young as age 3) and how they get passed down through families without anyone meaning any harm
  • How a mother's own body comments - not even directed at her kids - directly shape her child’s relationship with their body and food
  • A confronting exercise to help you see your self-talk for what it really is, and why it’s never okay
  • Why healing yourself is one of the most powerful things you can do for the next generation - whether you have kids or not
  • How to gentle parent yourself: the one practical shift you can make this week to start speaking to yourself differently
