Your Worth Is Not in Your Body: Celebrating Women’s Success and Self-Worth
Your body is the least interesting thing about you.
This episode is all about the complex world of body shaming, self-worth, and societal expectations with a personal story that sheds light on resilience and self-acceptance. After receiving a prestigious award from the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA), Tara shares her experience with online criticism and how it underscored the importance of detaching self-worth from body image.
Together, we explore how body shaming can affect everyone, regardless of body size or appearance, and discuss why your inherent worth isn’t defined by others’ opinions or fleeting societal standards.
In this episode:
How Tara’s award sparked both support and criticism, revealing the pervasive issue of body shaming
The impact of shifting beauty standards and the ever-moving goalposts of body ideals
Why self-worth is intrinsic and unearned, rooted in simply existing
The importance of supportive communities and finding people who celebrate your success
Why representation in fitness and wellness spaces matters for inclusivity and empowerment
Tune in to this episode to embrace the movement of redefining self-worth, finding acceptance, and building a culture that celebrates all bodies.
