24 | Loving Our Bodies as Strong, Empowered, Modern-day Women

Published: May 1, 2020, 11 p.m.

Strong, powerful, independent women can still get body insecurities and we don't need to be ashamed about that!  In this episode we're diving into how you can genuinely love your body and feel at ease as you are - and ditch any BS thoughts that tell you that if you were truly a feminist then your body shouldn't matter.  

We are worthy, valuable and deserving irrespective of what our body looks like or is capable of. And while we can know that intellectually, it doesn't mean we always FEEL it in our day to day lives.  

So that's why I've created this episode for your pretty wee face. We'll be discussing:  

*how having body insecurities doesn’t make you shallow or vain  

*my relationship with my body and how it was the reason I got into personal development (but I tumbled down the rabbit hole HARD)  

*our bodies are not the source of our insecurities, they’re the focus of our insecurities  

*our insecurities come from thoughts, not facts  

*we can’t feel loved if we don’t feel worthy to receive it  

I hope you enjoy it you saucy minx you. 

Pays To Be You is a podcast for beautiful humans who are ready to know themselves, love themselves and express themselves fully - all in the name of making the world a better, brighter place! 

I'm your host Michaela Lloyd, a coach for change-makers, movers and shakers.  

In this podcast I'm throwin' down ideas from my wee heart and years of experience to help you ditch the fears, insecurities & bullshit stories that are keeping you leading a life that's a bit "meh..."  

Even if you're confused, even if you're scared, even if you doubt it's possible - in fact, ESPECIALLY if you're confused, scared and doubtful - show up anyway and say "heeeeeey" to the authentic, wise, radiant version of you that's rising powerfully from within!    

While information is flippin' neat, your transformation will come from implementing what you're learning so start before you're ready, start while you're scared, start while you suck, and see just how amazingly you grow in the process!  

Be sure to keep in touch on the daily through social media. I'm always down to exchange cat memes and Harry Potter jokes:
