In this powerful and deeply personal episode of the Body Peace Podcast, Nina Manolson and Jennie Kramer explore the emotional, cultural, and intergenerational dynamics between mothers and daughters—and how these relationships shape our body image and food beliefs.
Drawing from their own stories, client experiences, and decades of clinical insight, Nina and Jennie invite listeners into a nuanced conversation. They dismantle simplistic narratives around “mom blame” and instead illuminate how mothers, too, have been shaped by a culture of body dissatisfaction, diet trends, and inherited trauma.
They reflect on questions like:
What happens when a mother’s love is filtered through fear of weight stigma?
How can women take responsibility for healing their own body relationship without shaming their caregivers?
What practical tools can help parents support their children without reinforcing harmful messages?
Together, they offer a blend of validation, strategy, and radical compassion for anyone untangling their body story—whether as a daughter, a mother, or both.
