Hello and welcome to this episode of the ESG Fitness Podcast. I don't remember to do this enough.

So if you do enjoy the podcast and I'm assuming because you're listening, you probably do,

then please do help me out by sending it to friends or family or anyone who you think

would benefit or just find it interesting. It really helps me boost

listenership and hopefully help more people. So with that said, today's episode is potentially a

little contentious. I really wanted to do an Instagram post on this, but I wasn't sure how to make it short enough

for Instagram without losing the context. So I wrote an article on it, which I will put in the show

notes. And I'm basically going to talk around that a little bit. I think it's a really important

topic. And I also wanted to talk about it here where I can give it a little bit more context.

So the article is titled, The Best Thing I Ever Did for My Relationship with Food and Body

Image. And then the subtext is set bigger goals. And I thought long and hard about sharing

this and I want to be clear here that this is just my experience

and I'm certainly not suggesting that it's this simple or easy for everybody.

Actually easy is not the right word so it wasn't easy but I'm certainly not suggesting it's this

simple for everybody and for some people it runs deeper than that I guess deeper than like just lacking a bit

of purpose although I shouldn't say just like lacking purpose is massive but anyway for me a lot of

my poor relationship with food or body image came from lack of purpose and also misplaced self-worth

but I do understand that for many people it's not that reason and thus this solution will not

work for you.

But the reason I want to share this is that I feel like a lot of people could save themselves

years of over-analysing themselves and staying stuck where they are.

Kind of like what's the saying,
