What happens when your body changes—and the world still expects you to stay the same?
In this 20th (and final!) episode of Season 2 of Softspaces Podcast, I’m joined by the amazing Dr. Patrice Little to talk about what it really means to redefine beauty and come home to your body after life, trauma, and healing reshape it.
For the first time, I’m sharing a deeply personal part of my own journey—my experience with a prophylactic double mastectomy—and how it challenged, stretched, and ultimately softened the way I see myself.
Together, we open the conversation around:
✨ Healing your relationship with your body after major change
✨ How beauty standards can silence real healing—and how to find your voice again
✨ Practicing self-compassion when your reflection feels unfamiliar
If you’ve ever struggled with body image, self-acceptance, or feeling disconnected from your reflection, this conversation is for you. Let’s start talking about it—with softness, courage, and a whole lot of truth.
Thank you for tuning in to Softspaces Podcast with Yolanda Lewis!
