Unpacking Body Image & Disordered Eating

Our bodies are easy targets for us to place the blame for our discomfort, and the diet-culture infused society we all grew up in made that easier. Body image issues are very complex and ultimately, have nothing to do with your actual body and everything to do with the ways you learned to control and avoid discomfort using the control of your body. In this episode, we dive deeper into the body image conversation than we’ve seen anyone else do. We divulge our personal experiences being at war with our own bodies, what the healing journey actually looks like, the fears that hold you back from making amends with your body, sexuality and its ties to our relationship with our bodies, and what we’re really after + what becomes available to us when we do this deep work to heal our body image.

We believe a life without passion is simply a life without meaning. When life gets a little mad and chaotic, it’s easy to find ourselves resisting the madness as if it doesn’t have a divine purpose to your life and your growth.  In these conversations, we explore big questions to understand ourselves better, rediscover the meaning in everything and reignite the aliveness that comes with living life in purpose. We hope to help you do the same.
