Episode Synopsis
Adeline's heartfelt narrative about her journey towards body acceptance, particularly influenced by her experiences with motherhood. She shares her struggles with body image during her teenage years, but later discovers her physical strength through activities like dance and aerial silks. However, life's challenges such as asthma, financial constraints, and the demands of motherhood impact her ability to maintain her physical health. She gained significant weight during her pregnancies and initially felt a sense of loss and disconnect from her body due to the changes. She then learns to love and care for her body, focusing on its strength and resilience rather than its appearance.
