From Scales to Self-Love & Ending Body Shame #E43
Today, Louise is taking a deep dive into the ever-changing beauty standards that have dictated how women feel about their bodies for generations.
As a certified coach and survivor, she’s unraveling the myths sold to us by the diet and beauty industries—how they profit from our insecurities and keep us chasing an impossible ideal. From historical body trends to the pressures of social media, Louise explores why we’ve been conditioned to believe our worth is tied to a number on the scale.
She shares personal stories, including the emotional rollercoaster of stepping on the "sad step" every morning, and offers insights on how to break free from body shame and reclaim your self-worth.
This is your invitation to step away from the toxic cycle and embrace your body—not as a trend
but as the strong, worthy, and beautiful vessel that carries you through life.
Tune in, be part of this empowering conversation, and join a community of women lifting each other up!
