As we step into the new year, it's common to run into a bunch of toxic temptations, right? Well, Vic’s here to shift that focus. Instead of feeling the pressure to change your body, this episode is all about realigning and tuning into what we really want, which is peace. Victoria lined up six powerful body affirmations she uses herself to stay grounded, grateful, and respectful towards her body. They're perfect for steering your mindset towards joy, especially if you're planning any changes this year. Vic also dives into her own journey with body image and takes a look at the whole Ozempic and weight loss trend that spiked in 2023. Say these affirmations out loud, jot them down, and bring them out whenever you need that extra boost of positivity. We're hoping this episode helps ease any stress or anxiety you might be feeling from all that new year diet culture talk.
