Episode Synopsis

Have you looked in the mirror lately and thought, “What happened to me?” You’re not alone, and you’re not broken. In this episode, I’m sharing how to meet those tough body image moments with compassion instead of shame. This one’s personal. I’m taking you inside one of those dressing room moments, the kind where your body feels unfamiliar and your mind goes into overdrive. I got stuck in a dress (literally), but what happened next was a deeper emotional spiral I know many of you will relate to. But instead of letting my inner critic run the show, I used what I teach in my coaching: pause, notice, and respond with love. If your body’s changed, if aging is stirring up old stories, if you’re navigating identity shifts—this episode is here to help you feel seen, supported, and stronger. In This Episode, I Talk About: The real story behind that dressing room breakdown How aging, identity, and grief often show up in our body image Why minimizing your pain doesn’t help (and what you can do instead) How to be there for someone else without rushing to fix it A simple, beautiful mirror practice you can start today Want My Self-Love Checklist?
