It's the start of a New Year and many people are committed to changing their bodies. This week, I have a special guest on the show to talk about body image. Judith Gaton brings a refreshing perspective to the conversation around body image and self-acceptance in this insightful interview. She emphasizes the importance of breaking free from societal expectations and the unrealistic goal of sustained self-love.  Judith introduces the practical Triple-A Framework (Awareness, Acknowledgment, Acceptance), guiding individuals to reconnect with their bodies after what might have been years of neglect. Throughout the interview, Judith encourages women to move beyond the dichotomy of either hating or loving their bodies. Instead, she advocates for embracing the journey of self-discovery and kindness, acknowledging that sustained self-love might not be an immediate or realistic goal for everyone. Her approach challenges the conventional narrative surrounding body image, promoting a nuanced understanding that aligns with the complexities of individual experiences.
