E188 - "Do it Fat" with Sara Chambers

from Authentically Ashlyn Hosted by Ashlyn Gunderson

Ashlyn sits down with brand strategist, author, and business coach Sara Chambers for a deeply honest conversation about body image, self-worth, and the stories we’ve all been handed about what our bodies should be. Together, they unpack the myths and conditioning of diet culture—the praise for shrinking, the shame for expanding, and the exhausting cycle of “getting back on track” that so many of us know too well. Sara gets candid about her own experience moving through body image struggles and the toll that hyper-discipline took on her mental, emotional, and physical connection to herself. She shares how redefining her intention—her “come from”—shifted everything, and how approaching change from love instead of punishment has transformed her relationship with her body. This episode dives into embodiment practices, daily mindset rituals, and the inner work required to untangle self-worth from shape, size, and control. It’s about choosing yourself—every version, every season.
