How do you really feel about your body? Do you think you're too fat to feature? Or not quite thin enough to be good enough? If this is you, listen in to today's show as Anna and her guest Tara talk about the messages women get about their bodies and how this can move you into a really disordered place of shame around the way you look. They also discuss the need to create a counter culture for bodies needing to look a certain way in order to be acceptable.
Tara Whitney is a CPA, business owner, professional speaker, writer and executive health coach. She's best known for successfully coaching women to change their relationship with food, overcome binge and over-eating and to create a life they fall in love with. Tara's message is about getting women to re-think around food and their bodies, especially as related to their own worth.

Today we are continuing our monthly theme of wellness, with special guest Lisa Crilley, LMFT. Lisa’s work focuses on body image and eating disorders and she works in private practice. Lisa knows how our minds and our doubts can mislead us into believing things about ourselves that are not true!
Let’s take the word balance out of the equation because balance doesn’t truly exist. Wellness is about taking care of yourself, and because your needs vary, wellness is a fluid state of taking care of yourself, listening to yourself and even accepting yourself.
What we want for ourselves can be completely misaligned with our emotional needs. There is no one thing you can fix about yourself that will make you accept yourself if you don’t already practice acceptance.

Anna Osborn, wife, mother of twins, business owner and licensed psychotherapist explains why she thinks that balance can be a huge barrier to the idea of wellness. She gives her take on how balance can lead to self-destruction, due to BS expectations. She believes that we will end up being stuck in a place of disconnection from our spirit, soul, heart and head and no wellness can be achieved through striving for balance.
