So many parents know the deep impact of body image concerns. We have felt this ourselves, and know it’s big for our kids, but it’s so big it feels overwhelming. This podcast is the first of its kind to bring together the science and the stories you need to raise kids who move, nourish, respect, and embrace their bodies.
In this episode, we learn more about our hosts, Taryn Brumfitt and Dr Zali Yager - who they are and why they are here.
Body image is a complex issue, and people of all ages, genders, shapes, and sizes can have concerns about their bodies that hold them back in life. We’re on a mission to change that for us, and for our kids.

There is so much evidence on the benefits of self compassion for our mental and physical health - and for our body image. In this episode, we talk through the science behind #bekind, and how you can learn to respond to yourself with self compassion instead of critical self talk.
