I've been avoiding this topic for 2 years now. My relationship with my body image is something I try to protect, because it's one that has brought me a lot of pain. There was a time that I blamed my body for my unhappiness and the demon of comparison was a very large figure that took over. It's a relationship that I'd consider a "work in progress" despite being in a better mental place.\nAfter getting to a place of contentment, I wanted to share my journey with my body image. This journey is one I never thought I'd go through and one I'm still nervous to share for many reasons. I feel like when people think of "body image issues", it looks a certain way to them. However, I learned that it's a spectrum and to not discredit any of these unsettling feelings. Everybody is different and everyone has their own relationship with their physical self.\nIf you choose to listen to this episode, I hope you listen with an open heart and mind. Hopefully, this episode connects with some of you.\xa0\n\n*Content Warning: There will be talk about weight gain, nutrition, and body image.\n__________________________________________\nHost: Melody Cheng\nEditor: Victoria Cheng\n__________________________________________\nP A R T N E R S\n\u2022 Pampers:\xa0 For trusted protection, trust Pampers, the #1 pediatrician recommended brand.\n\u2022 BetterHelp: Get 10% off your first month with code \u201cABG\u201d at betterhelp.com/ABG\n__________________________________________\nC O N N E C T W I T H U S\n\u2022 Subscribe and Follow us @asianbossgirl on Apple Podcasts/Spotify/Amazon Music/YouTube/Instagram/Twitter/Facebook\n\u2022 Listener Survey: Let us know your thoughts on the podcast here\n\u2022 Shoutouts: Give a shoutout on the podcast here\n\u2022 Email: hello@asianbossgirl.com\n__________________________________________\nS U P P O R T U S\n\u2022 Merch: asianbossgirl.myshopify.com\n\u2022 Donate: anchor.fm/asianbossgirl/support\n\u2022 More about us at asianbossgirl.com\nLearn more about your ad choices.
