About this listen

You’ve been told working out will fix your body image.

Just lose the weight. Burn the calories. Get leaner. Then you’ll finally feel confident.

But what if that’s not how it works?

In this episode, I’m sharing why lifting weights healed my body image in a way dieting and cardio never could. Not because it changed how I looked overnight, but because it changed how I saw myself.

We’ll talk about:
• The difference between training to shrink vs. training to build
• Why intention in the gym matters more than the workout itself
• How strength builds self-worth, not just muscle
• Why body image has more to do with perception than your actual body

If you’ve ever walked into the gym hoping to “fix” yourself, this conversation will challenge you in the best way.
