Mind Over Matter

Today we have the opportunity to speak with body acceptance coach Kristina Bruce (@kristinabrucecoach) Our first podcast of Season 3 is out now! Kristina Bruce is a Body Acceptance Coach that helps people remember that we are all born knowing we are good enough, and that we don't need to change or force our bodies to be different. Growing up in Ontario, Canada, Kristina struggled with thinking that if she was only thinner or more beautiful she would be more valuable. After high school, she attended University and majored in sociology and health studies. After spending many years not eating enough and overexercising to control her weight, she realized that being thinner and "beautiful" didn't make her happier, it just made her feel more anxious and insecure. She eventually came across the Body Positivity movement and became interested in pursuits that would connect her with her deeper self - such as meditation and yoga. She now helps people realize this on her website, popular Instagram account, and through personal coaching.
