This week I'm delighted to be joined by Cat LaCohie and we're talking everything body confidence.We explore the reality of societal pressures that many women face after pregnancy, and how Cat uses burlesque as a medium to reconnect women with their bodies and embrace self-love. But this episode is not just about burlesque. It's about the journey of self-discovery, and the transformative power of reclaiming one's identity. Cat shares how embodying powerful characters through burlesque helped her reclaim her strength during moments of self-doubt. She challenges the notion of seeking constant approval from others, emphasizing the value of self-worth and the joy of being in the company of the right people. As our conversation draws to a close, Cat sheds light on the importance of being vocal about who you are, and how it helps filter out those who don't belong in your life.She shares her inspiring journey, from building her own website to teaching burlesque classes, and how she learned to say 'I'm amazing and you're welcome' instead of apologizing for her actions. The message of this episode is clear: Individuality, self-love and authenticity can be empowering tools to navigate through life's challenges. You can find Cat in all the cool  places.Her website FacebookInstagram and her other insta! And if Cat has really made you think "Hey, I should give this a shot" then head here for online classes.Just a  reminder that HPNB now only has 5 billing cycles!So this means that you not only get 3 months FREE access, no obligation!

As the weather warms up, so does the pressure to achieve the so-called “summer body.” Social media is once again flooded with weight loss tips, body “fixes,” and the outdated idea that only certain body types are worthy of showing up in the sun. In today's episode, we're cutting through the noise and talking about body acceptance and neutrality—practices that can help you show up confidently and comfortably, no matter your size or shape. I'll share my thoughts on the resurgence of 90s-style body messaging, the impact of comparison, and the ways I navigate dressing for my body while prioritizing confidence and comfort. Plus, we'll get into practical strategies for shifting negative self-talk, setting boundaries with body commentary, and embracing the experience of summer without body-related anxiety taking over. What You'll Learn in This Episode:

Tom Segura joins Ethan on a journey through the ups and downs of weight management and self-acceptance. Remember that eighth-grade breakup that sent you spiraling? Tom recounts how a similar experience motivated him to hit the pavement and sparked a lifelong battle with weight concerns. They share personal tales that reveal how even external successes can mask inner insecurities, and emphasize the universal connection between our internal struggles and how we project ourselves to the world.Tom and Ethan dive into the nitty-gritty of diets gone awry, the relentless availability of junk food at comedy clubs, and how this lifestyle can wreak havoc on one's self-esteem. We explore the tightrope walk between physical health and mental well-being, underscoring the relentless effort necessary to strike a balance in the whirlwind of showbiz.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS(00:01) Navigating Weight and Self-Acceptance(11:59) Overcoming Weight Loss Challenges(15:22) Body Image and Self-Acceptance(20:12) Challenges of Weight Maintenance(24:22) Maintaining Health and Wellness Amid Challenges(32:01) Consistency in Fitness on the Road(43:38) Navigating Self-Esteem and Body Acceptance(51:14) The Delusion of Body Image(01:00:17) Maintaining Healthy Habits for Movie Work Hosted on Acast.

"Dress for your body type", "define your waist", and "only wear what is flattering". The anti-fat bias we talk about on this podcast all the time extends into how we dress ourselves and what we feel worthy of wearing. As our bodies change (as they will continue to do throughout our life), many of us are met with barriers to body acceptance. And our clothes are a massive part of that. But they can also be a pivotal part of our liberation. This week we're joined by Dacy Gillespie, a weight-inclusive anti-diet personal stylist. We untangle the mess of our closets, dismantle patriarchal ideas of fashion, and challenge our sense of what we "should" be wearing based on our body shape and size. What's on Dacy's plate right now (and importantly, what's not) Dacy's journey to personal styling and anti-diet work Why having a passion for clothing is not vain Fashion's role in body image and societal pressures Understanding clothing sizes and body measurements Size acceptance and our clothes How to shop for new clothing as your body changes Steps to take to identify your personal style separate diet and beauty culture Letting go of old clothes and emotional attachments How clothing sizes impact our body image  The life-changing magic of finding your authentic style Challenging the inner critic when shopping Barriers to accessing clothing in a larger body The limitations of “flattering” The fashion rules we need to ditch  How to deal with your closet About Dacy: As a weight inclusive, anti-diet personal stylist, Dacy Gillespie helps her clients reject fashion rules and ideal standards of beauty imposed by the patriarchy, white supremacism, and capitalism so that they can uncover their authentic style. Through their work building a functional wardrobe, Dacy's clients make a mindset shift from thinking they need to wear what's flattering to unapologetically taking up space in the world. After a lifetime of jobs in high-stress careers that didn't suit her highly-sensitive, introverted personality, Dacy started mindful closet in 2013 in an attempt to create a more emotionally sustainable lifestyle. Her work has been featured in Forbes and Real Simple and she is a frequent podcast guest. Dacy is married and has two boys, ages 5 and 9. Support the show: Enjoying this podcast?

In this episode, Sarah and Stef explore how body acceptance might feel like defeat for many who have struggled to change their bodies and feel oppressed by their circumstances. They dissect how acceptance is a proactive practice that differs from the feeling of defeat, which is reactionary and involves a perceived loss against external forces. Stef shares personal insights on how acceptance can feel oppressive when it seems to invalidate self-advocacy, while Sarah discusses how resistance to acceptance often stems from fear and shame. The conversation touches on therapeutic techniques to work through resistance, the importance of validating and allowing resistant feelings, and the transformative power of willingness and allowing reality as it is without judgment. They also talk about the importance of having a supportive space where resistance can be discussed openly and without the urge to “fix” it immediately. Towards the end, they discuss real-world applications of these concepts, bringing in examples like discomfort on airplanes due to body size and personal triggers in relation to diet culture. They also investigate how contextualizing experiences as non-personal and understanding biological and psychological underpinnings can help shift perspectives from defeat to empowerment.

Happy Satiated Saturday! Your body loves to be in movement. Yet, movement or exercise can also be a way to create distance between you and how you feel. There is a different felt sense when you move to express a fight or flight response or dissociate from the feeling of threat in your body. You can ask yourself before you move: Am I using movement as a way to push myself further away from me? Am I using movement in a way that connects me back to myself?In this week's episode, I chat with DK Ciccone, author and weight-neutral certified pilates instructor and pain specialist, about: Befriending movementRedefining movement goalsChallenging fitness cultureUnderstanding chronic pain and the role of movement in pain managementListening to your body's wisdomHealing through movementYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/rediscover-the-joy-of-movingIn the Somatic Eating® Program, you'll learn how to gauge what and how much physical movement would work best for you.

Happy Satiated Saturday! I take a different approach to body image healing. I apply the same explorations I do with food from a somatic perspective to body image. I started to wonder why is it that you can look in the mirror and love what you see one day and then later that day or the next day look in the mirror and feel like everything needs to change. Your body did not change within 24 hours. The answer is your nervous system. You will perceive your body differently based on your nervous system state. Often body image worries increase when you don't feel safe. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Deb Schachter, author and Boston's leading clinicians in body image and eating disorder recovery, about: Navigating bad body image momentsThe role of relationships in body imageWhat your body is trying to tell you through body image concernsAn internal family systems perspective on body imageThe importance of connection and community on this healing pathYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/bad-body-image-momentsWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Deb: Website: https://debschachterlicsw.com/ https://bodyimageinsideout.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bodyimageinsideout/ Book-Body Image Inside Out: https://amzn.to/4hQdLNaSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

Happy Satiated Saturday! Body shame is body communication. If body shame could speak, it might say, “It doesn't feel safe to be as you are. I'm trying to protect you from the pain you've already endured.”Body shame often acts as a shield, guarding against judgment and rejection. No one could be as cruel to you as you are to yourself. This can feel like a defense, ensuring that no one else's words can hurt you more than your own.Body shame can create a thick impenetrable wall around you that no one can get in but neither can you. It can lead to feeling disconnected from yourself where your body becomes a tool rather than a living being that allows you to experience sights, sounds, smells, textures, and tastes. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Marla Mervis-Hartmann, coach, speaker, and author about: The journey toward self love takesNavigating diet cultureEntering this new year with an intention toward self compassion and self care rather than weight lossThe role of pleasure and emotional expression in healingYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/befriend-your-body-and-rediscover-pleasureAlways here for you.With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Marla: Befriend Yourself Book: https://amzn.to/42jDGrOWebsite: www.LoveYourBodyLoveYourself.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/loveyourbodyloveyourselfalways Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/loveyourbodyloveyourself Support the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

Happy Satiated Saturday! Body image concerns are often one of the many challenges that fuel disordered eating and eating disorders and are one of the worries that continue to stick around long after you've found a safe relationship with food. There can be an expectation when you've healed your body image challenges that you'll never worry about the way your body looks, that you'll never compare your body to someone else's body ever again, that you'll love the way you look in pictures, and that you won't even care if your body changes. A somatic approach to body image would be increasing your capacity to be with body discomfort, meeting your body worry with curiosity, exploring the nervous system message in your body judgment, and regardless of what you think about your body, knowing that you are still safe in this body. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat about: A somatic and nervous system perspective to body image healingAn example of how body image concerns are coming from a trauma responseWhat I do when I notice body image concerns ariseYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​:https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/transform-body-image-worries With the new year coming up, there are going to be more social media posts, commercials, and comments by your friends and family about what diet they're starting or what weight loss drug they're getting on. Keep connecting back with yourself to explore what you need to feel safe within these conversations and within the discomfort that may arise.

With compassion and curiosity they discuss: Embracing Softness and Connection in male relationships Exploring societal and cultural barriers to open communication about health and strategies to encourage vulnerability and authenticity with peers partners and providers Body Acceptance and Aging The value of men's groups in an era of growing isolation and loneliness and the power of sharing stories for mental and physical well-being Resource Mentioned in this Conversation: The Mankind Project https://mankindproject.org/ For More Information and to Connect With Percy Hawkes https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/percy-hawkes-portland-or/390834 For More Information and to Connect With Erica Leroye https://www.flowcode.com/page/creativebodyrelease.com For More Information and to Connect With Soft Cock Appreciation Week https://www.softcockweek.com/ We have MERCH! Check out our store www.softcockweek.com/store Takeaways Men often struggle to communicate about sexual health and function. Group dynamics can facilitate open discussions among men. Body acceptance is crucial as men age and face changes. Vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness. Softness can be a source of connection and intimacy. Men desire to feel seen, heard, and loved. The mind-body connection plays a significant role in sexual health. Normalizing conversations about erectile function can reduce stigma.

During the closing panel of Soft Cock Week 2023 the conversation shifted to “where is the joyful representation of soft cock in erotica that isn't humiliation focused?” This inspired previous participant Mish Middelmann, prostate cancer survivor, advocate and founder of Recoveringman.net to go on a quest to find what lives in the wilds of the internet for those who want Soft Cock in their erotic fantasies. His North Star is to celebrate how soft cocks invite men and their partners from one-dimensional results-oriented sex into full body integrated connection with love for self, and partner, and beyond. Erica Leroye and Mish are likeminded on this mission and in this conversation Mish shares what he has discovered. They also talk about their personal experiences tapping into the creative process as a way to deepen the mind/body connection to their juicy erotic wholeness and share tips and ideas for turning on self and others through creative expression.

Happy Satiated Saturday! It has become this norm that we "should" all be trying to lose weight all the time. And because of this, of course, you would want to lose weight. Your body seeks attunement with other bodies. When everyone around you is also trying to lose weight, your body interprets this as the path to safety and connection. Releasing the need to change your body's weight can feel scary and even threatening to your well-being. We need others to survive. If those you rely on connect with you over dieting and losing weight, an association can occur that not dieting is dangerous to your survival.It can take time and practice to question the impulse to change your body's appearance. By practicing this though, you will start to be the person who sends a message to other bodies that safety and belonging can occur simply through being together as we are.In this week's episode, I chat with Dr. Alexis Conason, Clinical Psychologist and Certified Eating Disorder Specialist about: The anti-diet movement and what it isDiet culture trying to co-opt mindful eatingBody image challengesBuilding resiliency against diet cultureThe importance of self compassionNavigating food choices mindfullyWhat eating what you want actually meansAction steps you can take to practice anti-dietingYou can read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/what-it-means-to-love-your-body-and-eat-what-you-wantDoors closing to the Somatic Eating® Program on Monday at midnight. JOIN THE SOMATIC EATING® PROGRAM!: https://www.somaticeating.com/With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Alexis:Website: https://drconason.com/ https://www.conasonpsychologicalservices.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theantidietplan/Book: The Diet Free RevolutionSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/discount/STEPHANIEMARA?rfsn=7433250.c99684Use my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. www.bensound.co...

If you are new here, I just wanted to hop into your inbox to say THANK YOU for listening to the Her Best Self Podcast! & if you are a veteran, I am so grateful that you trust in me week after week to bring you juicy, raw & real content that you can binge on to help support your relationship with food & your body. ~ In Coaching over Coffee, Episode 175 I answer the question: "What Can I Do To Increase Portion Sizes & Up my Food Intake When I'm Just Not 'Feeling It'?" ~ Here is a hint, (but I encourage you to listen to the full episode still): If you find yourself here, this is typically because you have a deep routed fear that if you increase food, you will gain weight. I mean, what if you don't know how to stop eating?  Gosh, have I been there! What you are experiencing, I have also experienced. This comes from ED & the only way around it is to shift your perspective & begin to accept that maybe your body just isn't supposed to be controlled, forced or manipulated into a size. When you live life from a place of restriction...you believe you aren't allowed to have something, you shame yourself & you go against what it is you actually want....CONTROL, PEACE & FREEDOM. Body Acceptance is Key! But increasing your food gradually is also very helpful! ~ You can learn to embrace nourishment & to honor your body in all that it DOES for you! If you are looking for practical tips to help you with reframing your thoughts around food intake, then today's show is perfect for you. I hope this episode gives you more permission to do the next right thing! I believe in you :) ~ Listen in to this one & don't forget to come share your thoughts & feedback with us in our private facebook community! & if you have a question you'd like to have answered on the pod, you can shoot me an email directly at info@lindseynichol.com. xo, lindsey Find All the Things -＞ wwww.herbestself.co ______ Coach with Me -＞Client Application ______ Email me directly -> info@lindseynichol.com ______ Join the free FB community -> www.herbestselfsociety.com ______ Need a helping hand guiding you girl!?

Episode 2666: Crystal Karges shares her transformative journey of ditching the scale, which helped her shift from defining her worth by weight to nurturing a trusting relationship with her body. She emphasizes that removing the scale can liberate mental space, foster self-respect, and empower future generations to resist diet culture. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.crystalkarges.com/blog/weight-tracker-why-i-ditched-the-scale-for-good-and-you-can-too Quotes to ponder: "It changed the narrative in my brain that my weight was no longer defining my worth, nor could it dictate how or what I would feed my body." "It is possible to break free from the pregnancy weight gain tracker so you can focus on doing what's most important to keep you and your baby healthy and safe during pregnancy." "Not just live but THRIVE and take a powerful step forward in reclaiming your life from diet culture."
