If your body has changed recently — postpartum, during eating disorder recovery, with PCOS, through stress, or just through life — and your body image feels a little shaky… this episode is for you.
In today’s conversation, I’m sharing my personal experience navigating body image over the past year while my body was changing in real time. From weight gain during eating disorder recovery to postpartum shifts, I’m talking honestly about the discomfort that can come up — and what actually helps.
Because here’s the truth: healing body image doesn’t mean you never have negative thoughts again. It means you learn how to respond to them differently.
In this episode, I walk you through the three shifts that helped me move from panic and “fix it” energy… to neutrality and peace. We talk about:
Why you don’t have to love your body to treat it with respect
How to stop treating body changes like emergencies
What it looks like to build a life where your body isn’t the main character
Practical tools for reframing negative thoughts into grounded, neutral ones
Why discomfort in a changing body is normal — not a sign that you’re failing
We also touch on the research around body dissatisfaction in women and why women with PCOS are at an even higher risk for struggling with body image and disordered eating patterns.
If you’ve been feeling uncomfortable, triggered, or just “off” in your body lately, I hope this episode gives you both practical tools and real hope.
Your body is allowed to change.
You’re allowed to feel discomfort.
And healing is still possible in the middle of it.
