Why We Need to Brave Body Shame in 2021 with Julie Sweeney Body Kindness
-
- Mental Health
You aren't born feeling body shame. It's decided for you, conditioned in you, and you become entangled. Dominant culture’s body ideals can keep you ensnared in your own self-loathing. But what if you want out? Make a pivot and CONNECT to your body, even if you wish it was different. Braving body shame is leaning into your burdens with empathy and compassion, saying "it's OK, I'm here... I want to care for you."
My guest Julie Sweeney discusses the virtual conference Braving Body Shame where people share their body stories.
