91% of Women Hate Their Bodies - And Here's How We Change That

from After Bedtime with Big Little Feelings

Here’s the truth: 91% of women hate their bodies. Ninety-one percent. And if you’re a mom? The research says postpartum makes it worse for 70% of us. No wonder so many of us look in the mirror and instantly spiral. It’s not just about how we look - it’s about our confidence, our joy, how we show up in our relationships, and yes, how we parent our kids. In this episode, we’re getting brutally honest. From growing up in the Kate Moss “nothing tastes as good as skinny feels” era, to disordered eating, to postpartum bodies that feel like total strangers, to the comments from strangers on the internet that can wreck your whole day (fuck Jeff) — we’re unpacking all of it.But this isn’t just a vent session. This is about breaking cycles. We’re talking about the tiny shifts that change everything: How to stop trash-talking your body, how to practice gratitude for the skin you’re in (even when it’s hard), how to have REAL body neutrality, and how to raise kids who don’t spend decades hating themselves the way so many of us did. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll feel so damn seen. And you’ll walk away with the fire to finally say: My body is not the problem. It’s my home, my power, and my story.This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.
