The Moment I Stopped Needing Him to Get It

There was a moment when I realized something uncomfortable.

I wasn't actually doubting myself. I was waiting for someone else to confirm I was allowed to trust what I already knew.

In this episode, I share the kitchen moment that changed everything: when I realized I'd been collecting external opinions about my body for decades—and using them as proof that my choices were valid.

You'll hear about:

- The moment someone gave me "loving advice" about my body

- How I'd learned to measure my knowing against other people's reactions

- The question that shifted everything: "What do I want?"

- Why agreement feels like safety (but isn't the same as trust)

- What changed when I stopped needing permission

This is Episode 3 in the Loving Without Shrinking series.
