The Body Image CycleJulie breaks down the emotional stages many women experience in their relationship with their bodies: Awareness: When we first notice our bodies being judged — often as young girls. Comparison: Measuring ourselves against unrealistic beauty standards and social media ideals. Criticism: Internalizing those comparisons and turning them into self-blame or shame. Control: Trying to “fix” or change our appearance through dieting, overexercising, or other extremes. Acceptance: Slowly learning to see our bodies with compassion and gratitude. Empowerment: Embracing authenticity, self-expression, and health over perfection. 2. The Influence of Culture and MediaJulie unpacks how media messaging, celebrity culture, and social platforms fuel body dissatisfaction and what we can do to filter out the noise. 3. The Role of Aging and ChangeFrom puberty to pregnancy to menopause, women’s bodies are constantly evolving. Julie shares insights on how to embrace those changes as signs of wisdom, strength, and life experience instead of loss. 4. The Healing Power of Self-TalkListeners will learn practical ways to reframe negative thoughts, shift focus from appearance to wellness, and replace judgment with kindness. 5. Tools for Real Body PositivityJulie offers strategies to build a healthier body image, including mindfulness, gratitude practices, surrounding yourself with supportive communities, and focusing on what your body can do, not just how it looks.
