Ooooooh You Gettin' Big

Have you ever winced at a relative's "compliment" about your weight, or felt that uncomfortable tug at your heart when family conversations steer towards body image? We've been there too, and that's exactly what we're unpacking in our heartfelt chat on weight perception in family dynamics. We share our own rollercoaster of emotions, from the exhaustive demands of our daily routines to those precious moments of self-care that restore our spirits. The dialogue takes a deep dive into the subtleties of comments that sting and the journey of self-acceptance, whether it's dealing with the transition from our athletic days to loving the 'mom bod' or handling the complex emotions that come with fluctuating weight.

Then, stepping into the broader world, we explore the pressing conversation around body image and size inclusivity. We'll discuss the powerful message of a New Orleans musician who's calling out the fashion industry for its lack of plus-size options in stores, and amplify voices from the fitness community who are breaking free from toxic stereotypes. It's a candid reflection on the struggle for representation and the importance of cultivating a supportive space in both physical and online communities. Expect to leave with a renewed perspective on health, an appreciation for your unique journey, and a reminder to spread kindness everywhere, even in the comment sections. Join us for this uplifting episode that's all about embracing who we are and celebrating every body type.
