EP 78 - Body Image, Core Beliefs and Unmet Needs with Molly Siefert The Power in Motion Podcast
-
- Self-Improvement
In this episode, we are joined by body image expert, Molly Siefert. Molly shares her body image story, illustrating how the quest to feel better in the face of a health challenge by restricting certain foods, resulted in weight loss and unexpected praise. This led Molly down the slippery slope of finding validation in eating clean, being disciplined with food and exercise, and a “role model” for health - and she shares how damaging it was to her relationship with food, exercise, her body and herself.
Inside we talk all about how dieting behaviour, or our relationship with food, really isn’t about the food. Rather, how we eat and think about food, is an expression of how we feel about our body and ourselves, which is formed by how we think of ourselves based upon our core beliefs about how a woman should look.
Molly shares some insightful tips to help you explore these core beliefs and how curiosity and self compassion can more you towards self-acceptance, greater connection and meeting your own needs.
---What you’ll learn by listening:
Why body image is such a struggle for women and why it’s so harmful to praise weight lossHow our body image stories are formed via the messaging we receive about women’s value being her appearanceHow our relationship with food stems from our relationship with our body, which stems from our relationship with OURSELVES. The sneaky ways we seek to validate our worth through perfectionism and people pleasingThe ways in which we abandon our own needs when we feel not good enough, and how we can rebuild that connection with ourself through authentic self care.---About our Guest:
