Listen "Summer Confidence "
Episode Synopsis
Hi everyone and welcome back to another episode of Taking Up Space with Jordan! I’m your host, Jordan. Today, we’re continuing our glitter gel pen summer by diving into body positivity. As a plus-size person, I've had my struggles, but body positivity is for everyone, regardless of size. We'll discuss societal pressures, finding confidence, health and wellness, and embracing individuality.
I'll share my personal journey, the importance of curating your social media feed, and the power of body-positive communities. We’ll also talk about inclusive media representations and how to celebrate your unique body. Whether it's rocking a swimsuit or living authentically, let's embrace self-love and acceptance together.
