The Love Your Body Episode
One normal thing about being human is we all have a body to get us from place to place. But they're all so different. This would be fine if things like body shaming and bullying didn't exist. But unfortunately, they do. Though we all suffer, it seems like it's especially difficult for women to learn to love their bodies in a world where they are constantly scrutinized and criticized. This is why this week's episode focuses on the book Fat Girl Walking: Sex, Food, Love and Being Comfortable in Your Skin... Every Inch of It by Brittany Gibbons. She's also the hilarious voice behind the website BrittanyHerself.com. We discuss her childhood, becoming a mom, revealing herself to the world and learning to accept and love her own body. This book is a must-read for anyone who has struggled with body image, and in this episode, we dive into our own struggles and come out on the other side ... relatively unscathed.
