This episode is part of Body Relationship Month — our special July series where we're revisiting some of our most-loved episodes to help you heal your relationship with your body.
Many of us struggle to overcome society's message that you need to look a certain way to be valued. Adopting these messages (willingly or not) often creates debilitating battles with how we see our bodies. This negative body relationship can permeate nearly every aspect of life and diminish our entire experience.
We end up living day after day with someone (ourselves) we don't accept, love, or appreciate unconditionally. And well… that sucks.
But there are steps you can take to embrace your imperfections, accept yourself as-is, and still pursue your health and fitness goals. The result? Peace, freedom, and finally escaping a lifetime sentence in your food and body prison.
In this episode — “Embracing Imperfection: How to Love Your Body at Every Stage” — you’ll learn:
🔶 Why chasing perfection often leads us further from body acceptance
🔶 Strategies for resisting societal pressures and overcoming negative self-talk
🔶 What it really means to have a "good" body
🔶 How the media influences our body image
🔶 How embracing your imperfections can lead to a more empowering life experience
🔶 Why Tony was surprised to find out that Deanna has been trying to control him
…and much more!
