Body Image After 40: How I'm Making Peace With It

In this episode, I'm getting really honest about body image, comparison, aging, and the pressure we put on ourselves to get back to our "old" bodies. After years as a professional bodybuilder and coach, I've learned that getting leaner, winning trophies, or hitting a certain number on the scale never actually fixed how I felt about myself.

I'm sharing what I've learned about comparing myself to other women, being attached to my former physique, and realizing that sometimes the jeans aren't the problem. The real question is: How am I showing my body love?

We'll talk about body confidence, social media, self-care, getting older, and why loving your body is something you practice - not something you have to feel first.

If you've ever struggled with body image or wished you could get your old body back, this one is for you.
