Episode Description:
In this episode of The Daryl Perry Podcast, we’re unpacking one of the biggest mindset shifts you can make in your fitness and personal development journey — separating your self-worth from your body size.
Logically, we know our value isn’t determined by how we look. But emotionally, it’s not that simple. We’ve been taught to tie our worth to appearance for so long that unlearning it takes time, awareness, and a whole lot of reinforcement. I talk through how to start that process by focusing on what makes you you, not just how your body looks.
We also talk about societal standards and how they’re designed to make you feel insecure so you’ll buy products or follow trends. Knowing that can help you step back and reframe the way you see yourself. I share how the fitness industry often feeds into this mindset and how my approach — through daily messaging, coaching, and podcasting — aims to give you tools to build a life from the inside out.
I’ll also walk through why appreciating your past self and your current self is key. This isn’t about “new you versus old you.” You’ve always been worthy. You’ve just evolved. And no matter where you are on your journey, you deserve to be seen, supported, and valued by yourself first.
Rewiring your default thought patterns takes time. You’ll need patience. You’ll need consistent reinforcement. But most of all, you’ll need compassion for yourself as you do this work.
