<p>Hey so it's getting kinda crazy out here y'all! When every other ad is for a GLP-1 and celebrities are wearing their weight-loss like badges of honor, it can be easy to slip into negative self-talk about our bodies. In fact, dare we say that the whole system is designed to keep us locked in a loop of self-hatred and consumption to keep us controlled and quiet? We do dare indeed!</p><p>In this episode, we get real as hell about our own experiences in different sized bodies. Join us to deconstruct body image, western beauty standards (and their NASTY origins), and explore how embodiment can rekindle our relationship with our bodies in new and loving ways.</p><p>Trigger warning ~ in this episode we discuss body image, eating disorders, internalized fat-phobia, and other body related topics that may be triggering or challenging for some folks to listen to. Please make whatever choice is best for you and skip this one if it harms more than helps!</p><p><br /></p><p>Girls Gone Real is a podcast where two besties get real about being girls in a world choked by patriarchy. Follow along for monthly conversations, silly stories, and appearances from our mascot Doug!

<p>WE'RE BAAAAACK! Welcome to season two, baby! </p><p>Well friends, it's been a cold and unforgiving winter full of lots of things and events and stuff. You get it. We get it. We're all on the same page here. So to breathe some life into things, we decided to make season two more fun, more, unhinged and more chaotic than ever. (you're welcome)</p><p>In our first episode, we're reading song lyrics that make us giggle, scream, cry, think, and validate our own wild experiences with the magic of someone else's words because at the end of the day, there truly are no unique experiences and for that we are honestly thankful. Shoutout to humanity and shoutout to GIRLS SPECIFICALLY.

<p>In this episode of <strong>Girls Gone Real</strong>, we’re unpacking the difference between <strong>performing self-care</strong> and <strong>actually practicing self-love</strong>.</p><p><br></p><p>We talk about how self-care has been commodified, aestheticized, and stripped of its depth — and what it looks like to return to self-love as a <strong>sacred, embodied practice</strong> rather than a productivity tool or public performance.</p><p><br></p><p>Together, we explore:<br>🌱 What self-care actually means versus how it’s been sold to us<br>🔥 The relationship between self-love, self-trust, and self-worth<br>🧠 How self-concept shapes the way we treat ourselves<br>💸 The systems that benefit from our burnout and disconnection<br>🕯️ Reclaiming self-care as devotion, not discipline</p><p><br></p><p>This conversation is for anyone who feels like they’re “doing all the right things” but still feels disconnected, exhausted, or unworthy. Self-love isn’t something you perform — it’s something you practice.</p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://youtu.be/_K_pKw_N9lI" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Watch this episode on YouTube!</a></p><p><a href="https://instagram.com/girlsgonerealpodcast" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Follow us on Instagram!</a></p><p><a href="https://instagram.com/chesyconnects" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Follow Chesy!</a></p><p><a href="https://instagram.com/hannahraestevens" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Follow Hannah!</a></p>
