A topic we haven't broached on this podcast to date: SEX. How do we navigate intimacy when we're dealing with body image issues? This episode is juicy -- you don't want to miss it.

What Leah learned in Jamaica The issue of TRUST when it comes to what our partner thinks of us What if my partner is not interested in me since I've gained weight? New relationship energy A common narrative in sex lives of parents Socialization of females to fix things and make things better for everyone Confidence and weight; chicken or egg?
