Mum and Me

Today we talk body image, the role of mothers and how the two connect. We discuss the importance of positive self talk around children, any genetic links and how to cope when your mother projects her own body image issues onto you. Trigger warning: we discuss dieting and eating disorders. We reference the below articles and campaigns: https://edition.cnn.com/2017/06/07/health/body-image-moms-impact-daughters/index.html And the Dove Legacy Campaign is featured at the start of this episode https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pqknd1ohhT4 If you have any questions you would like answered in our podcasts, topics you want covered or comments, you can shoot us an email at podcast@femmeheroine.com

This week, mum and me answer some of your questions around long distance relationships with significant others, friends and family. Can it work? Why are we so cynical of unconventional relationship structures? We talk tips on how to make it work, signs that it isn’t working and when it can actually be for the best. If you have any questions for us, topic suggestions or just praise (we love praise) you can email us at podcast@femmeheroine.com. That’s right, we have our very own email address! Or, if you download the anchor app you can send us voicemails on the app or follow us on Instagram: @femmeheroine- the home of Mum and Me the podcast!
