There is a lot of messaging coming at us from many different sources that tells us as women to shrink ourselves. This can be about the size of our bodies with constant pressure on women to be smaller or to lose weight or it can be about our presence with pressure to be accommodating, agreeable, to avoid conflict, or just in general to take up less space.
In this episode with Dr. Lauren Barnes, we talk about how this messaging to take up less space, both physically and emotionally, affects us and how we can use practical strategies to get more comfortable in our own bodies and in our own space and then how that in turn helps us deepen our relationships with other people.
