Don't Let Your Mind Bully Your Body

I'm opening up about my struggle with body image. I have struggled since I was a teenager with the way my body looked, like many others. 

I always like to have a laugh and keep things lighthearted while I record episodes and this is still the case for this one but as you will see I do get emotional. I talk about the experiences I’ve had and how they still impact me to this day. I open up about my eating disorder and how I overcame it as well as my thoughts on the pressures of beauty standards that still remain in society. 

We live in such a strange environment of social media and this bizarre celebrity world, nothing feels authentic or real, everything is so perfectly manicured and warped to be aesthetically pleasing. It’s hard to not put this pressure on ourselves and feel the weight of it. It’s always important to check yourself.

Please be kinder to yourself and speak to yourself as if you were speaking to the younger version of you. Look out for yourself and look out for each other.

I also want to say that I did film this on three hours of sleep after being on a night out so if I seem like I am out of it that is why lol, love you xxxxxxx

PSA

If you are seriously struggling I urge you to please speak to someone you trust or seek help from your GP, you are not alone and you should not have to struggle alone.
