Podcasts about Body image

Where have you been hiding? From others—or from yourself? And what might happen if you finally allowed yourself to be fully, fearlessly seen?In this work, we root back into our whole, worthy, authentic selves—the magical selves we arrived as before the layers of societal programming settled in. In this conversation with TBM member and author Karin Hadadan, we're reminded that we can return to, uncover, and embrace that perfect inner child.Karin's manifestation process isn't about calling in material things, but about reconnecting to her truest self: her unblocked emotional range, her body's innate healing, and a divine meeting with her soul's essence. She shares her journey through chronic illness, external success, and the profound inner shift from “I'm not enough. I'm too much” to “I am enough. I am whole.”We explore childhood cultural imprints, body-image wounds, the fear of being seen, and the moment of surrender that changes everything.If you're ready to step off the gas pedal of achievement and into the stillness of being, this episode is your invitation into your next level of growth. Reminder: Our biggest sale ever is live!

Thanks to the continued rise of body-image pressure that has been fed and fueled by marketing and social media, our teenage boys are being encouraged to engage in what's called “Testosterone-maxxing”, or “testmaxxing.” The practice involves attempts to increase male hormone levels through the use of hormone medications. A host of social media influencers have been building their following of teenagers young and old alike, some barely into puberty, feeding the narrative that to be a real man you must have bulging muscles and washboard abs. This trend is fueling a rise in unrealistic body expectations, dissatisfaction with one's body, and dangerous medication trends. And thanks to the algorithms, our curious kids who seek information on bulking up in this way will continue to receive more and more information, thereby driving them deeper and deeper into this dark hole. Parents, monitor your boys, and teach them that their identity is not to be found in their muscle tissue, but in Christ.

Why perfectionism is ruining sex, the biggest misconceptions around women's pleasure & why safe sex should NEVER be an ick with Sex, Relationships and Body Image therapist Aleks. Plus, we talk about pleasure love languages & how to find out what yours is.

What is gluttony really? If you’ve ever worried about overeating, obsessing about food, or wondered whether enjoying that extra slice of cake is a spiritual failure, this episode is for you. Best-selling author and host Heather Creekmore dives deep into the true heart behind gluttony—exploring why our modern definitions miss the mark and how diet culture and church culture have distorted our understanding. Heather reframes gluttony, drawing on biblical insight, church history, and thought-provoking examples from C.S. Lewis and Tim Keller. She challenges the idea that gluttony is simply about having seconds or what’s on your plate and asks powerful questions about cravings, control, and where we derive our satisfaction. Plus, Heather explores how misplaced fears about food can keep us stuck and why true freedom comes from surrender—not self-denial. Whether food has become a source of stress or you’re striving for perfect control, this conversation will open your eyes to new ways of understanding your desires and finding satisfaction. Ready to rethink gluttony and experience food freedom? Listen now for practical encouragement, spiritual wisdom, and a fresh take you won’t want to miss!

Send us a textYou ever catch yourself thinking, “I've been so good with food today, so tomorrow I deserve to eat whatever I want”? Yeah, that sneaky little diet-culture voice is messing with your head. In this episode, I chat with registered dietitian and intuitive eating coach Bonnie Roney about what it actually means to give diet culture the finger and why “being good” is often the very thing keeping you stuck.We dig into how our well-meaning “rules” about food, like labeling things as good or bad or eating to make up for yesterday, actually disconnect us from our bodies. Bonnie breaks down the difference between dieting and intentional eating (and no, they're not the same thing), what intuitive eating really is, and how you can rebuild trust with yourself around food without spiraling into chaos or guilt.We also get into the messy, human stuff: why guilt and shame hijack your food choices, how childhood messages like “clean your plate” shape your relationship with eating, and what it actually takes to stop feeling out of control around certain foods. And because I can't resist stirring the pot, we even talk about whether intuitive eating and weight loss can coexist.This convo is part food psychology, part rebellion, and full-on liberation from that “good girl” diet mentality. So if you've ever swung between kale salads and cookie binges, this one's for you.What's Inside:The real difference between dieting and intentional eatingWhy labeling foods as good or bad keeps you stuck in guilt and shameWhat intuitive eating actually means (and no, it's not “eat whatever, whenever”)How to rebuild trust with your body and stop feeling out of control around foodWhether you can pursue health goals and intuitive eating without losing your mindWhat would feeling truly free with food look like for you? Would it mean eating without guilt or finally trusting yourself around the stuff you used to avoid? Look, that could be you. This episode is your sign to stop playing the “good vs. bad” food game and start tuning in to what actually feels good. I'd love to hear your take—DM me on Instagram and tell me what being free with food means to you!Mentioned in This Episode:Diet Culture RebelBonnie Roney's free guide: 3 Ways To Give Diet Culture The FingerBonnie Roney on InstagramOonagh Duncan on InstagramFit Feels GoodLeave me a voice note on Speak Pipe!

Just a heads-up that in this episode we talk about late miscarriage. I am so grateful to Kelly for opening up about something that affects and speaks to so many of us - it's a beautiful conversation but if you're feeling tender around those issues for whatever reason, we've put in the time-stamps below in case you need to skip that bit.  Kelly is a woman whose career has reflected the shifting tides of the British media landscape: from finding fame as a glamour model in the 90s, and being voted FHM's sexiest woman in the world on more than one occasion; she later made the move into presenting and acting. Now it's also just been revealed that she'll take part in this year's I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! In her first interview since that announcement, Kelly joins me for an honest and moving conversation about the pitfalls of fame, finding true love and she gives an extraordinarily vulnerable insight into her own fertility journey and her decision not to have children. Plus; how working on her own self-worth has brought her new happiness. An inspiration! ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 00:00 Introduction 02:05 Marriage 05:28 Joining 'I'm a Celebrity' 06:52 Preparing for the Jungle 10:56 Reflecting on Success and Failure 25:28 Navigating Personal Growth and Boundaries 26:39 Romantic Relationships and Sacrifices 31:36 Dealing with Loss and Grief 33:31 Body Image and Societal Pressures 35:55 The Pain of Miscarriage 46:39 Embracing Authenticity and Moving Forward

In this encouraging episode of the Compared to Who? podcast, host Heather Creekmore delves deep into the ever-present fear of missing out—aka FOMO. As part of the “Fear Free Fall” series, Heather unpacks the spiritual roots of FOMO, exploring how it impacts our faith, contentment, and even our relationship with God. Heather explains that FOMO isn’t just a modern phenomenon brought on by social media; it goes back as far as the Garden of Eden. Through honest reflection and biblical truth, she challenges listeners to consider whether FOMO is really about doubting God’s goodness and wondering if He’s holding out on us. You’ll learn: Why FOMO can reveal a lack of “little faith” in your daily life The connection between social media envy and spiritual insecurity How the story of Adam and Eve perfectly illustrates our struggle with FOMO Why God’s timing isn’t the same as God’s favor, and what that means for you The myth of competition and the futility of trying to “win” at life through comparison How to stop chasing others’ dreams and dig into your unique, God-given calling What true abundance and blessing really look like—and how it differs from what social media promises Heather encourages listeners to stop focusing on someone else’s life and instead trust that God’s plan for YOU is personal, intentional, and truly satisfying. If comparison has kept you feeling “less than,” this episode offers authentic hope and practical gospel wisdom to help you stop comparing and truly start living.

Joey hat ein gebrochenens Herz. Ausgelöst durch Julia, denn die erzählt uns heute ausführlich, wie uninspirierend und langweilig ihr Frühstück so aussieht. Für Joey als absoluten Frühstück-Experten gleicht das natürlich einem Weltuntergang, aber keine Sorge: Er hat's gerade so überlebt. Heute wird es so ernst wie sonst nie. Ziemlich ungeplant um ehrlich zu sein, denn wir wollten in dieser Folge mal etwas Anderes ausprobieren und haben ein neues Spiel eingeführt, was unsere Hirnzellen so richtig rattern lassen hat. Wir räumen heute auf mit Vorurteilen über Bodyimage, stellen die Daseinsberechtigungen von Schuluniformen und Zoos in Frage und berichten über unsere (naja, eigentlich nur Joeys) traumatisierenden Erlebnisse in diversen Ferienlagern.

In this episode of The Body Grievers Club, Bri sits down with therapist, drama therapist, and creative arts therapist Danny Bryant—a fat, neurospicy clinician from upstate New York and one of Bri's dear friends. Together they unpack the messy, beautiful intersection of neurodivergence, ADHD, body image, and body liberation.Bri and Danny talk about what it means to work with your brain instead of against it—how perfectionism, masking, and executive dysfunction show up in everything from laundry to therapy notes. They explore the grief that comes with realizing your brain (and body) may never operate like everyone else's, and how to build systems, compassion, and community around that truth.They also dig into the overlap between body liberation and neurodivergence, from shame and self-blame to the ways capitalism, ableism, and diet culture all demand conformity. Expect laughter, tangents, and a lot of “same, same” moments as they name what's hard, hilarious, and healing about existing in a brain and body that don't fit the mold.If you've ever wondered whether you're “just lazy” or living in a world not built for you, this conversation will remind you: you're not broken. You're living in a system that wasn't designed with you in mind. And you deserve care that honors both your body and your brain.TIMESTAMPS:05:00 Interrupting, hyperfocus, and why voice memos help our brains13:10 Pandemic clarity, fidgets, and “something's off” → assessment16:00 Bri's “wait, do I have ADHD?” moment in real life18:30 Executive dysfunction: notes, laundry, and tasks-within-tasks22:10 Systems that fit you: redefining “done,” micro-steps, and dopamine25:10 Burnout cycles, urgency mode, and freeze vs. rest27:50 Missed diagnoses in women/AFAB folks + masking as survival30:40 ADLs with compassion: showers, brushing teeth, and ritual > routine33:10 Habit stacking, duplicates (chargers everywhere), and shame as the enemy36:00 All-or-nothing thinking, internalized ableism, and seeing ADHD as disability39:00 Curiosity > criticism: Finch, allowances, novelty, and changing what no longer works41:50 Interoception, meds, intuitive eating adaptations, and sleep/circadian quirks45:00 Energy rhythms, gray-scale phone, capacity planning, and Mondays vs. Fridays47:30 Boundaries, FOMO parts, and letting people be disappointed (community = annoyance sometimes)50:10 Assessing “stay home or go?”—facts, context, and momentum vs. depletion52:00 Culture check: conformity pressures (thinness, ableism) and finding your people54:00 GLP-1s vs. stimulants: safety, autonomy, and why changing size ≠ changing beliefs56:00 Spectrum ≠ line: the “pie chart” view + how presentation varies widelyRESOURCES:Mentioned in this episode:Love Dani Donovan's art and writing on ADHD:Comics: https://www.adhddd.com/comics/The Anti-Planner: https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/122842465-the-anti-plannerKC Davis's Strugglecare: https://www.strugglecare.com/resourcesA Radical Guide for Women with ADHD: Embrace Neurodiversity, Live Boldly, and Break Through Barriers by Sari Solden and Michelle Frank:www.newharbinger.com/9781684032617/a-radical-guide-for-women-with-adhd/ srsltid=AfmBOoqIlhzeA5jvKuvaBqnjZZcQUZeGo5LMRX1vThmBMYFM1pWa2OtnGifted kid with ADHD essay:https://blackgirllostkeys.com/adhd/double-trouble-navigating-life-as-a-gifted-kid-with-adhd/This person is writing about Neurocomplexity in a interesting way:https://lindseymackereth.substack.com/ADHD & Nutrition@rds_for_neurodiversityWANT MORE OF DANI BRYANT?* Instagram: @danibtherapy* Website: www.danibryant.comWANT MORE OF BRI?*Instagram: @bodyimagewithbri

About Dr. Chaya Leiba KopernickChaya Leiba Kopernick is a clinical psychologist, educator, and host of the Therapy Should Work Summit. She is passionate about evidence-based therapy, body image awareness, and helping individuals cultivate healthier relationships with themselves and others.Our ConversationChaya Leiba and I spoke about body image, health, and motherhood—exploring what it means to prioritize well-being without tying it to body size. We discussed the resurgence of diet culture and the pressures surrounding thinness, especially with the rise of Ozempic. Together, we reflected on our experiences with pregnancy, body changes, and the discomfort that often comes with body-related comments.We explored how “health” is frequently conflated with appearance, and how labeling foods as “healthy” or “unhealthy” can complicate our relationship with food—especially as mothers raising children. Chaya shared her balanced approach to nutrition, homemade meals, and consistent health routines, while we both emphasized that true health extends beyond body image.Our conversation closed with reflections on self-acceptance, body diversity, and the importance of advocating for ourselves in the medical system while thinking critically about health trends.

We inherit shame like an unspoken family heirloom — stitched into our bodies, our ambition, our idea of enough. It's the quiet undertone behind so many brilliant women asking, “Why do I still feel like I'm not enough?”In this conversation, Jennifer Walter sits down with therapist and facilitator Kyira Wackett to unpack the hidden ways shame shapes our lives — from body image and burnout to perfectionism and belonging. Together, they explore how shame isn't just a feeling — it's a learned survival strategy. One we can unlearn.You'll hear about the difference between “good” and “bad” pain, why setting boundaries feels so hard, and how to start building shame resilience without burning yourself out.This episode is part psychology, part real talk — a compassionate deep dive into the quiet stories that keep women performing, proving, and people-pleasing.If you're tired of hustling for worth, this one's your permission slip to rest, reflect, and begin again.

Ever found yourself at the vet swiping your card with one eye closed—just hoping the total isn't another $3,000 surprise? You're not alone.In this episode, Brittany and Christina pull back the curtain on the real cost of pet ownership — the emotional love story that often comes with a hefty price tag. From emergency surgeries to “Can I just pull them out myself?” moments, they dig into how far we go (and how much we spend) for the animals we adore.They chat about the emotional side of spending on pets, how the industry has exploded into a multi-billion-dollar machine, and why it's so hard to draw the line between love and financial logic when it comes to our fur-babies.If you've ever questioned whether that vet visit, dental cleaning, or MRI was “worth it,” this episode will have you nodding, laughing—and maybe rethinking your next pet insurance policy. About Brittany and Christina:Meet Brittany and Christina, your dynamic podcast hosts who bring their unique blend of expertise, passion, and life experience to every conversation.Brittany, affectionately known as Britt, mom, mommy, bruh, and Queen, lives in Vancouver with her husband and their three fantastic kids (tweens and teens, hence the playful nicknames).

*This episode originally aired in 2018, re-airing it today in honor of Lacy's new book. And look out of an updated conversation between us later this week. In in late 2017 a friend mentioned a workshop she'd  attended in New York led by Lacy. After hearing about her experience, I was intrigued, yet slightly apprehensive because after years of obsession and addiction to all things personal-growth, spirituality, and manifestation I was at a point where I was exhausted by content even in the vicinity of self-help. Despite my trepidation I checked out Lacy's work and several hours later, I was hooked. From her style and aesthetic to her framework and perspective, her work was incredibly intriguing. In the weeks leading up to this interview  I was a bit nervous to meet her in person. Fortunately, Lacy was  warm and welcoming putting me at ease the second I walked into the Brooklyn apartment where she was staying. We sipped a tea infusion she made us (Lacy's an herbalist) and chatted for hours about everything from bodies and food to design and design to relationships. We talked about her philosophy around authenticity, boundaries, and of course debunking myths about manifestation. She was kind, charming, articulate, and I loved recording this episode and listening back to it.Show notes:- Lacy on The Web | Podcast | Instagram | YouTube | Pinterest>> Lacy's new book: How to Manifest- Katie's Substack | IG: @letitouttt + @katiedalebout  | Zine shop is here! - My Creative Clinic. >> book Let It Out: A Journey Through JournalingAll original music composed by Carolyn Pennypacker Riggs

Let's talk about body image and how to stop comparing yourself to other in this interview with author Deb Schachter. Learn the skills to Regulate your Emotions, join the membership: https://courses.therapyinanutshell.com/membership Rethinking Body Image from a Somatic Perspective with Deb Schachter Most of us try to fix body image by changing how we look — dieting, working out harder, or comparing ourselves to others. But what if real healing starts on the inside? In this conversation with somatic therapist Deb Schachter, we explore a radically different approach to body image — one that begins with listening to the body, rather than judging it. Deb explains how our relationship with our body is shaped by early experiences, trauma, and disconnection, and how we can begin to repair that relationship through awareness, compassion, and presence.

In today’s honest and insightful episode, Heather Creekmore opens up about her struggles with CDD or “Chronic Disappointment Disorder”—a feeling that no achievement or special day is ever truly satisfying. She explores the root of this persistent discontent and uncovers how fear, envy, and comparison play into our longing for "enough." Heather dives deep into the heart-level issues fueling our dissatisfaction and shares practical wisdom on searching for true contentment in Christ. Drawing lessons from Tim Keller’s teachings on envy, Heather reveals how comparison, restlessness, and selfish ambition point us toward deeper spiritual problems, including idolatry. The episode is packed with personal stories, scriptural references, and actionable advice for anyone weighed down by the fear of never measuring up. If you struggle with body image, success, or just feeling like you’re perpetually missing out, Heather walks you through how to identify envy, repent, and redirect your heart toward worship and gratitude. Ultimately, this episode is filled with hope—reminding us that our deepest satisfaction can only be found in Jesus and in the coming kingdom.

Body image is a common theme on How to Fail. It's something everyone at some point has either struggled with personally, or knows someone who has. We hear from Paloma Faith on the topic - she speaks about being thrown out of ballet school aged 10, because she showed signs of becoming curvy, and that wasn't the correct body for a ballet dancer. Then we go to a part of my conversation with the incredible British sitting volleyball player, Martine Wright. Martine lost both of her legs in the 7/7 London bombings in 2005 and speaks so eloquently about how she actually wouldn't change anything. She is now a mother, a wife, a charity ambassador, certified pilot and the recipient of an MBE. I hope this episode offers comfort to anyone who's ever struggled with body image and acts as a reminder that there's beauty in every version of ourselves.
