Sonia Sotomayor's new book, "Anorexia," is about uncovering a radical self love. She says we are all one giant organism that creates harm collectively to sustain our life. The system tells Glennon your power lies in how you can control your body and make it do what it is that you say,. And that is how you ascend and achieve greater power in this ladder. I'm on that ladder too, because we're all on that ladder."
Following Glennon’s diagnosis, she, Abby, and Amanda go deep with Sonya Renee Taylor - author of The Body is Not an Apology – exploring the personal and global promise of Radical Self Love:
1. Examining the way we talk to our bodies – and how to change negative self-dialogue.
2. How to shift from a relationship with our body based on dominance and control to a relationship based on trust.
3. The pitfalls of “body positivity.”
4. Recognizing this global moment we are in as a gift inviting us to collective Self Love.
5. The full life that is possible only if we stop believing our body is our enemy, and start seeing our body as a teammate.
