Summary

I spent a large portion of my life picking my appearance apart. It never mattered how thin I was, how healthy I was or how many compliments I received from strangers on the internet, I couldn't be convinced that I was beautiful just the way I was. What I share in the first episode of the Mental Makeover podcast has been a long time coming, but I am so proud of how much progress I've made. I've truly transformed my body image and I want to help you do the same! If you enjoyed today's episode, please rate & leave a review so that this message can be spread wider.

0:56.6	I started when I was 18. I'm 26 now.
0:59.2	And more than anything, I just feel content.
1:03.4	And I don't know how you view the word content.

1:15.8	Some people can view it as, oh, I've settled, I'm content.

1:18.7	Content to me is the goal.
1:20.1	Life is never perfect.
1:22.7	Life is not always going to be your sunshine and lollipops,
