But like that we can all understand, you know, and so I just love everything about Beauty Redefined. It's this awesome conversational blend of like, and here's the receipts data point, 123.

And you do an excellent job about like, pulling a current event like a current celebrity quote, that's the example. And on Instagram, just killing it day one, that is my recollection of finding your wonderful content. And you know, my story of how you is like, man, Beauty Redefined. And and talk to you, I know you have a great book coming out called More Than A Body.īut before we get into that, I usually love to let listeners know how I came to find the guests. So, yes, I'm so grateful to have you on the show. I was like, Oh my gosh, I can't believe I got to them to so show. So I had Emily and Amelia Nagoski, who co-authored Burnout. Well, you are not interestingly, my first set of twins on the podcast. We have very similar voices and we echo each other just constantly. Yeah, I was just gonna warn you we talk simultaneously. We're going to have that a lot today, so get ready. Lindsay and Lexi Welcome to Body Kindness. And I would love to see you there you can learn all about ways you can work with me at /offers And I wish you well, I'm working on your Body Kindness journey. Make sure you check out the links in the show notes to find and follow all their wonderful stuff. I'm so grateful for their time I'm grateful for their work. So there's a lot of beautiful things to learn from in this conversation. And specifically, in 2020, we saw conversations around Rebel Wilson around Adele, around Billy Eilish, and you know the ways in which of course, we always look at the patriarchy as the example but there are also ways in which we uphold unrealistic standards of kind of leading body positivity among very, very human celebrities that aren't necessarily asking for those jobs. And we talk about this and relevance to celebrity culture.

I love the book, the prompts the conversation, they do a really great job of pulling out some of the societal elements of how, you know, women's bodies have become objects and how even other women engage in objectifying women. It is a major topic of this podcast interview. Their latest book is called More Than a Body - Your Body Is an Instrument, Not an Ornament. You may know them as the co founders of the nonprofit Beauty Redefined. They got their PhDs from the University of Utah. But also we want people to find their power through their pain of living in an objectifying world. We want people to find their power, not just through their purpose, not just through their bodies as an instrument rather than an ornament. That can be taken away as easily as it is given. If your power has to come from your beauty and how you believe you are being perceived by others. If you would like to enjoy self care, be less self critical, and make your life about more than your health routines. And we know that your health and your worth is not dependent on your weight. You are welcome and you belong in our community, where we value your well being, we share our experiences and support each other on the body kindness journey.

And I'm here to help you find your inner caregiver, you'll have more compassion, less shame, and the tools you need to deal with a culture that just does not want you to be free to give yourself fierce love. You're welcome in our group, and I really invite you to learn more about this group program and other offers that I have going on at /offers And you could join a small circle of folks who want to learn and grow and practice body kindness, who want resilience from body shame, who want to stop the diet roller coaster, or who want to very work on a very specific aspect of their personal well being. So no matter where you are, I hope that you can make that time work. But I am forming a 12 week group, we start January 9, and we're meeting on Saturdays at 1030. These opportunities are very rare these days.

Hey listeners, one of the most important questions that you're going to be asking yourself is, what is it that I can do to do a better job at self care? Where do I begin? How do I make sure that I'm doing the things that are really right for me, and I have an opportunity for you to work with me.
