See this content in the original post

Body shaming is a massive topic and, after last week’s episode, we realized we had just gotten started. So we’re back in the studio with Marla Mervis-Hartmann—body image expert, tantra teacher, and coach and creator of Love Your Body Love Yourself—to be laser coached from the dark side of our body shame back to the light of self-love.

In this episode, we look at how to deal with being body shamed by your doctor, what it’s like to be super horny with a husband who’s really not feeling turned on by the thought of pregnancy sex, the embarassment getting tits in high school, not wanting to look in the mirror, and being body shamed by your own parents. Does any of this sound familiar?

Whether you experience shame around your weight, shape, height, color, texture, how hot you are, how not hot you are—WHATEVER—body shame is something worth healing. Dive in with us and discover if there’s something right here in this episode that could you help you become absolutely shameless about your gorgeous, strong, one-of-a-kind, magnificent body.
