Body Love: Healing My Relationship With Body Image, Food, and Self-Worth

A personal reflection on body image, restrictive eating, intuitive nourishment, and learning to love my body with greater compassion

For most of my life, I have been in an unhealthy relationship with my body, body image, and the skewed self-narrative I carried within. In my teens and twenties, I was always trying to be smaller than my natural size, wrapping my value, worth, and acceptance around my weight.

I know many women can relate to this, which is why I feel called to share how I have come into a truer relationship with my body, one rooted in acceptance, nourishment, and self-love.
