Introduction
It's not uncommon to loathe clothes shopping. Or to go through everything in the wardrobe and nothing looks good. And yet, we're not stuck with this. In this episode we'll explore a radical new way to try on clothes, how it feels to wear clothes that fit and how this all impacts our body image. I also answer a listener question on affirmations to use when navigating the idea that your healthy body needs to look any one way.
This episode explores:
- body respect as it relates to wearing clothes
- the ideas we have about clothes and our bodies
