In this heart-opening follow-up episode, we’re going even deeper with body image educator and photographer, Teri Hofford. This time, we get into the behind-the-scenes magic of Body Image Bootcamp and more. Together, we unpack how understanding your unique inner strengths can shift how you see your body, how oxytocin (even from snuggling your pet!) supports healing, and why rewriting what success means can feel like a breath of fresh air. In this conversation with one of my personal mentors, we’re talking about the squidgy, tender stuff like the thoughts that come up when we’re feeling too much, not enough, or just totally undone. Expect laughs, tears, and a few big “aha” moments as we peel back the layers and reconnect with our truest selves. Whether you’ve done body image work before or you’re just getting started, this episode will remind you that your body is not the enemy, your journey is valid, and healing is possible.
Key Takeaways:
● Inner Strengths and Body Image: Teri shares how recognizing your personal strengths can impact the way you view and care for your body, plus Kimmay reveals the top 10 strengths that shaped her journey.
● Stay in Your Glow: Discover how honoring your own unique strengths (even if they’re different from others) can help you shine with more ease, clarity, and confidence.
● You Are Enough: Ever been told you're too much? We unpack how that message lives in our bodies and what it really says about our self-worth.
● Untold Stories from Mexico: From last-minute wedding invites to a stranger’s wedding in Mexico to raw, tearful moments on a retreat (that ended in matching tattoos!), Kimmay shares the very real, very human emotions that come up when we do deep inner work and lean into our strengths.
● The Real Deal on Retreats: Kimmay gets vulnerable about what really ran through her mind on retreat, and she and Teri open up about making room for those unfiltered human moments.
