This week’s theme is BODY IMAGE.
Leila talks about her experiences being a tall kid and I (Rhys) chat about how I thought the only way to become happy within my body was to strive to become a Marvel superhero...
During the episode, we chat about:
- Our own unique experiences with body image growing up — both good and bad.
- TW: eating disorders and how body image plays a huge part.
- TW: baby loss and post-partum body image.
- Ageing, changing and going with the flow.
- Social media, societal expectation and advertising, and how that plays into body image.
- Achieving body neutrality and learning to be grateful for what our bodies do for us.
- How to improve your self-worth, confidence and body image.
Just so you know, our conversations are completely unfiltered, unedited and happen very organically.
Also to note, we’re not professionals — if you’ve heard us speak, you will know that. We’re just a couple with a passion for nattering about our mental health and trying to navigate our way through the mad old game we call "life".
We explore these topics in real-time and figure out our opinions and share our experiences on the fly. We have no agenda and often, we miss things out and get things wrong. We're human — anyway, you know the score by now!
Anyway, please enjoy our chat, all about BODY IMAGE.
