How much does body image play into our romantic relationships or lack thereof? Spoiler alert: quite a bit. Join us as we talk with Erin about some of her past experiences and how she held onto the idea that her relationships (or almost relationships) didn't work out due to not being thin enough. We discuss how body image impacts us all regardless of our shape, size, or gender, how to re-write your own narrative of what makes you attractive, and why we need to be a bit kinder to each other through it all.
