We're Going There with Bianca Juarez Ep 30: Stop Being Ashamed of Your Body with Jess Connolly
Happy summer, my podcast friends! This season is chock-full of amazing guests, solo episodes, and timely truths to keep us always going THERE.
Let’s start this season with a touchy topic: our bodies. With the northern hemisphere donning sun dresses, sleeveless tops, and skimpy bathing suits, this is the PERFECT time to talk about issues plaguing our society. And for the men listening to this podcast, don’t act like you are exempt. If research is true, roughly 75% of men wrestle with body shame or body dysmorphia. So listen up, friends: It's high time we start talking about what we don’t like to talk about.
Today on the show, I’m talking with Jess Connolly, writer, dreamer, barre instructor, and author of Breaking Free from Body Shame.
Friends, I believe that we’ve all struggled with everything from:
- Body image
- Overeating
- Dieting
- Emotional eating
- Biblical view on eating
My hope isn’t that we walk away with a false sense of magically being free from body shame, but that we at the very least, celebrate the beauty created by a Master Artist.
If you want more information on Jess and how you can order her book: Breaking Free from Body Shame. You can do so now on amazon or check out the rest of her stuff at jessconnolly.com. I’m also giving away 3 copies of her book. Post on Facebook or Instagram and tag @jessaconnolly and @biancaolthoff to win.
It means a lot to my guests and I to hear your feedback online. So tag, post, share, and spread the love.
I’m so grateful for you and I can’t wait to see what this summer and this season of the podcast holds!
