Beyond the Body
by Christina Slater
“Beyond the Body” is a podcast for people who dare to look within, challenge their conditioning, and embrace discomfort to evolve their mind, body, and life. Join host Christina Slater as she explores the psychology behind your habits and the shadows that shape patterns like binge eating, all-or-nothing thinking, and self-sabotage in your fitness journey. Expect raw conversations about body image, mindset, relationships, self-trust, and the deeper inner work most coaches won’t touch — the work that transforms your mind, your body, and your life from the inside out. If you want to get fit, get inspired, think deeper, and explore the parts of fitness no plan ever talks about, you’re in the right place. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
