0:00.0	Tonight, making friends with your body.
0:16.6	Body image and body issues are a big deal.
0:22.3	We live in these bodies that are serving us all the time.
0:27.6	It's even weird to say live in these bodies because we are these bodies.

1:42.9	Life is too short to be stuck in my own head
1:45.0	worrying about what my future partner might think of my bunions,

1:57.7	And perhaps the most profound truth about our bodies
2:00.5	is that they're not really even ours.
2:04.4	They're products of generations and generations of family history.
