149. Nurturing Body Confidence: Feeling Safe & Secure In Your Own Skin w/ Jasmyne Reynolds

Your beliefs about your body can determine whether you perceive yourself as deserving or undeserving of love and acceptance. Influences from movies, media, magazines, and our families have embedded messages that can foster an unhealthy narrative, suggesting that bodies not conforming to societal standards are inadequate and lack appeal. Consequently, individuals may develop eating disorders, consider cosmetic surgery, experience suicidal thoughts, or engage in unhealthy dieting. The mindset that there exists a single, universal body standard compels people to believe that their bodies are either lovable or unlovable. In this week's podcast, join me for a conversation with Jasmyne Reynolds, a former bodybuilder and the founder of Black Fitness Mommy. She will share her personal journey towards body confidence after having three children, discuss why women often feel the need to "perfect" their bodies, the unhealthy need to lose weight for their relationships and provide insights on how to cultivate a love for your body starting today.
