Women may suffer from body image due to weight gain in every period of their lives even at an early age. This can have a lot of negative consequences such as comparison with others, frustration, depression, feeling insecure, etc.
Sometimes becoming a wife, and a mother, and having a job doesn’t help to keep a good body shape if you take care of everybody except yourself.
In this episode of the Wellness All Seasons podcast, Mina welcomes Ashley, a wife, mother of three, and holistic health coach, to explore the journey of overcoming body image struggles and embracing a sustainable, healthy lifestyle.
You will explore:
• Ashley’s Story: From childhood insecurities to teenage challenges with weight and health, Ashley shares her struggles with self-image and her journey to finding balance.
• Postpartum Challenges: The realities of weight gain after pregnancy and how Ashley found the determination to break free from yo-yo dieting.
• The Power of Accountability: How creating a support system and sharing her story on social media helped Ashley stay consistent and motivated.
• Sustainable Health Tips: Practical strategies for busy moms, including intuitive eating, meal planning, and incorporating exercise into a hectic schedule.
• Breaking the Restrictive Cycle: Why Ashley believes in a balanced approach to nutrition and fitness, and how small, consistent steps lead to lasting change.
🎧 Key Takeaways:
• Your health journey doesn’t require perfection, but it does require consistency and self-compassion.
• Accountability and community are powerful tools for achieving and maintaining your goals.
• Prioritizing your health is not selfish—it’s essential for showing up fully for your family and yourself.
