Summary
OUTWEIGH: In the third part of our holiday series on Outweigh, Amy and Leanne tackle a topic that resonates with many women during this time of year: dealing with fears of holiday weight gain and body anxiety.
Amy sets the stage by acknowledging how these fears can intensify with the increased focus on food and body image that the season brings. Leanne delves into the root of these anxieties, explaining that the fear of weight gain often stems from deeper self-worth issues rather than just the number on the scale.
You'll learn how to reframe the holiday season as an opportunity to prioritize mental and emotional well-being instead of fixating on weight. By inviting you to detach from external pressures and celebrate your bodies for what they can do, you'll learn how to take a more compassionate approach to the holidays, so you can embrace the season with less pressure and more self-love.
