This episode talks about weight & body image. We understand this can be a sensitive and challenging topic. If this is a topic that you find triggering, we suggest listening to another episode of Fitness Flipped. Tunde and her guests are always here to support you!
This is the most challenging theme of the season! Body image. It’s locked into body ideals (which change), pop culture (which changes), and broader society (which always wants us to change). But it never takes into account that bodies also change! We’re asking a lot of questions about where the concept of body ideals come from and what it means to how we perceive ourselves. Professor Nancy Chen, joins us to go deep on the history and how trends of body ideals change over time. Mustard also joins us for a conversation about starting his journey to finding his physical strength. How we perceive our bodies sometimes becomes our greatest obstacle to growth. We’re here to help it become our strength.
