Hello and welcome to another episode of the Dear Body Podcast.

I'm your host, Jesse Jean, and I am incredibly excited because I am joined today by an individual.

I stumbled across on TikTok, and I was immediately moved and inspired by his vulnerability,

his openness, his honesty, and his willingness to share his own personal struggles with

binge eating and body image challenges.

And I know most of our listeners are women and most of the time I'm speaking directly to

women, but it's so important that we expand the conversation of food and body struggles

beyond that of women because individuals from all different

genders, backgrounds, and lifestyles are struggling with binge and emotional overeating.

So I think that this will be a very powerful conversation.

I am joined today by the one and only Bobby Kaz.

And in my interview with him, he talks about what vulnerability means and why there's so

much stigma around males struggling. He talks about what vulnerability means and why there's so much stigma around males

struggling. He talks about tips and advice for pursuing healing, as well as his tips for balancing

fitness and self-care. I think this is an incredibly important conversation. If you are listening

and you're a female, I still think this is relevant and I think it's important to understand

that males are struggling just as much and to hear the perspective of a male struggling and healing

is really, really powerful. So I'm excited for you to listen to Bobby. And it's always important

that I remind you I'm not a medical or mental health professional. I am certified through the Institute for the Psychology of Eating as a coach.

So always a little disclaimer I need to remind you.

But I am positive that this will be an inspiring message.

I think it's important to understand and hear from males who are struggling as well.
