Healing Body Shame and Breast Implant Illness [Lauren of Love Feature]

In replace of this week's solo episode, we're delivering an extra special treat to you! I recently had the honour of being featured on the Lauren of Love Podcast, 'The World Needs Your Medicine'.In this feature, I shared openly about my breast implant journey over the last ten years, and how I was able to finally heal my life-long body shame. This feature means a lot to me, and I am excited to share it with you today.______________________From The Lauren of Love Show Notes:If you've been at war with your body and have perpetually struggled with feeling unworthy… this one is for you. Today I'm joined by Brianne Roberge - a writer, podcast host, and speaker whose work began with a simple question: "What if I could be the voice that I was searching for, for all these years?" Brianne spent most of her life chasing perfection in identity, career, and doing life "the right way" - until she hit her 30s and a quiet realization set in... this isn't the life I'm meant to live. What looked good on the outside was built on a need for validation, fear of judgment, people-pleasing, and deep internal fragmentation. Now a minimalist and world traveler, Brianne is a self-proclaimed de-influencer who speaks with raw honesty about healing trauma, shedding the masks we've carried for decades, and making bold, uncomfortable moves to create a life that's actually worth living.Brianne and I dropped into a deep conversation about how childhood trauma can silently drive our adult choices, the moment she realized her implants were never about self-love, and the years she spent being dismissed by doctors while her body was screaming for her attention. We explored what it looks like to love your body even while knowing you want to change it.Brianne's story is living proof that when we trace our choices back to intention, everything shifts.We also talk about:How childhood wounds of unworthiness can dictate decisions about our bodies well into adulthoodThe difference between altering your body from self-love versus self-rejectionWhat breast implant illness actually is and why so many women are dismissed by doctorsThe power of inner child healing in transforming your relationship with your bodyEpisode-Related Resources:⁠⁠⁠Read the blog post for this episode!⁠⁠⁠Lauren of Love Resources: Join the Magic App with dozens of courses, resources, and a private community! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://laurenoflove.com/app⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Freebies, courses, blog: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠laurenoflove.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@laurenoflove⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Grab our free Manifestation Sheets!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our weekly Magic Notes insiders list!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
