How to Improve Your Body Image, with Rachel Coleman

Published: Oct. 12, 2020, 4 a.m.

"Whoah,” is all I have to say about today’s guest. Just…”whoah.” 
 
Y’all know I am passionate about women and body positivity, so when this guest reached out, I knew I had to have her on the show.
 
Rachel Coleman is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 12 years of experience treating Eating Disorders at both an inpatient treatment center and in private practice where she focuses on guiding adolescents and women to break free from diet culture and stop evaluating their worth by the number on the scale. Rachel is a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist, has a certification of completion in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Maternal Mental Health, and is a Certified Intuitive Eating PRO. 
 
I wish we could have talked all day. Rachel has so much knowledge about our self-talk and the narrative about body image that’s being influenced by generations and generations of women, AND our society. We had an impactful discussion about diet culture and what it is, how we can actually VOTE for body positivity, the first step to accepting our own body, and how we can teach our daughters in the process.
 
You guys, I don’t think I’ve ever said this about any episode of the podcast before, but you actually owe it to yourself AND your children to listen to this episode and get plugged into the resources Rachel gives about body image and REAL health. I don’t know a single woman, size 0 to size 20, who hasn’t found something wrong with her body. We’ve got to change this.
 
Please listen, share with a friend, and connect with body positivity resources.
