    465-Body Image Perfectionism

    You've been doing the body image work. So why are you still having " bad body image days?" Because the goal was never to stop having them. In this episode, I'm breaking down body image perfectionism — the belief that if you heal enough, do the work long enough, follow the protocol closely enough, you'll arrive at a place where your body never bothers you again. That's not healing. That's perfectionism with a wellness label on it. I share the DM conversation that sparked this episode, real examples from my own life — including a chronic pain flare up and a feminist graphic tee that didn't go as planned — and what body image healing actually looks like when it's working. What you'll learn in this episode: What body image perfectionism is and why it's keeping you stuckWhy body neutrality — not body positivity — is the actual goalWhat it means to ride the body image experience instead of chasing perfectionismHow chronic health conditions and healthism feed the same perfectionism trapWhat health professionals must understand before coaching body image effectively Mentioned in the show: The Body Image Coaching Immersive: https://www.stephaniedodier.com/body-image-coaching-mentorship-immersive/ Coach Corner Vault: https://www.stephaniedodier.com/coach-corner Non-Diet Client Assessment Tool: https://www.stephaniedodier.com/clientassessment Non-Diet Coaching Certification Waitlist: https://www.stephaniedodier.com/non-diet-coaching-certification/

    464-The Oscillation of Body Image: Why Healing Is a Spiral, Not a Straight Line

    Bad body image days aren't failures. They're the mechanism. Stephanie teaches the healing spiral and why oscillation is how real body image work actually moves forward. In this Coach Corner episode, I teach two concepts that created a light bulb moment inside the first session of The Groundwork: the oscillation of body image and the healing spiral. These are not abstract ideas. They are the reframe that changes how you coach, and how you live in your own body. What you'll learn in this episode: Why healing is a spiral, not a straight line, and what that actually looks like in practiceWhat oscillation means and why the hard moments are the most healing phases of the journeyHow to coach clients through "setbacks" with curiosity instead of judgmentWhy bad body image days are a skill-building opportunity, not evidence that something went wrongThe onion layer your clients don't expect: why body image work always leads to self-worth Mentioned in the show: The Body Image Coaching Immersive: https://www.stephaniedodier.com/body-image-coaching-mentorship-immersive/ The Groundwork: https://program.stephaniedodier.com/groundwork Coach Corner Vault: https://www.stephaniedodier.com/coach-corner Non-Diet Client Assessment Tool: https://www.stephaniedodier.com/clientassessment Non-Diet Coaching Certification Waitlist: https://www.stephaniedodier.com/non-diet-coaching-certification/
