In today’s episode, we’re going to unpack the fear of weight gain, where it comes from, what it’s costing you and how to begin releasing it without giving up on your wellbeing. Because when you’re constantly monitoring your body, you’re also shrinking your joy, your confidence and your ability to be fully present in your life. I’m here to walk beside you as you navigate that space, with practical tools, emotional truth, and the reminder that your body is not the problem.
In this episode, you will hear:
• 01:45 - Why fear of weight gain can feel just as painful as dieting itself
• 04:15 - The truth about mental restriction and why it sabotages your ability to trust your body
• 06:37 - This fear isn’t just yours, it’s cultural, and it's been handed down
• 08:53 - How to protect your headspace through digital and social boundaries
• 12:48 - Client story: How movement helped one woman reconnect with pride and strength
• 15:55 - What it really means to grow, take up space, and stop shrinking
You’re allowed to care for yourself without controlling yourself. You’re allowed to nourish your body without fear. And most of all, you’re allowed to take up space, in your body, in your choices, and in your life. If you’re ready to explore what healing could look like with support, join me inside One Body to Love. And until next time, be gentle with yourself!
