0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to an episode of Aiway with Jemita Jamil. |
0:13.4 | This is one of our Ask Me Anything episodes where I go on the internet and I ask you for your questions |
0:18.5 | and I pick the ones that come up the most frequently. I always love these questions. I really appreciate how thoughtful they are, |
0:25.8 | how vulnerable you are and I do my best to answer them honestly from my own personal experience. |
0:32.1 | Okay, so first up, so someone's written in saying I'm working on body neutrality, especially |
0:36.6 | postpartum and I need some advice. How do working on body neutrality, especially postpartum, |

1:32.3 | and they're not eating and I go out to dinners and I'm the only one consuming food and |
1:38.0 | swallowing anything. And I find it a bit stressful and I'm recovered. So I can only imagine what that's like when you've |
1:47.0 | gone through something so monumental and you're feeling so hormonal and your body's still repairing |
1:51.0 | from this extraordinary thing you've done. I can only imagine the extra strain of that. |
1:56.0 | And what I would say is get off the fucking internet. I barely look online anymore. And when I do, I have |
