241. You Don't Have to Love Your Body to Stop Fighting It
Description
By the end of this episode, you'll know how to stop letting a bad body image day decide how you eat, what you wear, and whether you show up.
What are you refusing to do for your body until you finally like the way it looks?
Grab your coffee, friend, because this is the tough love conversation you might need. If you've been waiting to feel better about your body before you start treating it better, Brittany is about to get real with you about what that wait is costing you, and it's not going to be a list of affirmations. You'll leave with a challenge you can put into practice the same day.
A few things you can expect to hear in this episode include…
❤️ Why the pressure to "just love your body" can leave you feeling like you're failing at one more thing
🚦 Why bad body image days keep calling the shots, and how to stop handing them the wheel
💡 What the things you care for every day without adoring them can teach you about caring for your body
🛑 Why Brittany will never tell you to aim for body love, and what she'll ask you to aim for instead
1️⃣ What this looks like on an ordinary Tuesday, plus a challenge to try the minute the episode ends
