#136: Body Image SOS: Summer Do's and Don'ts

Rebuilding Trust With Your Body

It’s summertime and that means pool parties, BBQ’s, vacations, family reunions, and all sorts of other things that can make body image extra challenging. In this episode, I’m digging into some do’s and don’ts that are going to help you work through these body image challenges with clarity and confidence, so you can lather up with SPF and your flip flops and go enjoy all that summer has to offer.

Key Takeaways

1. Body image challenges: Things like chafing, wearing shorts, and being sweaty can be extra hard in the summer. We’re going to talk openly about it!

2. Live life fully: Instead of avoiding events, hiding in the back of photos, or wearing pants when it’s a million degrees outside - let’s lean into experiencing joy in your body as it is right now.

3. Dieting doesn’t solve anything: As tempting as it might be to go on a diet to slim down for summer events, it’s not going to help you.
