78. Weight Loss or Fillers Won't Fix Your Low Self-Worth

from The Juicy Truth with Dr. Jenny · host Jennifer Buchner

Welcome back, Queens! Today we’re stripping away the surface-level BS and getting into the one thing almost every woman struggles with, but nobody is actually fixing: the deep longing to feel at home in your own damn body. Dr. Jenny pulls back the curtain on her six years in clinical practice to reveal a truth that might sting a little: you can balance your hormones, take every supplement under the sun, and get the perfect Botox, but if you don’t feel safe and rooted in your own skin, you’ll always be chasing an external fix for an internal void. In this episode, we’re talking about why perfectionism and people-pleasing are just masks for low self-worth, how to recognize the "shitty software" running your brain, and how to break the generational cycle of body hatred inherited from our mothers and grandmothers. It’s time to stop treating your body like a project that needs to be fixed and start treating it like the home it was meant to be. Ready to come home to yourself? Let’s get juicy.
