Summary

Warmer weather is creeping up on the northern hemisphere and summer will be here before you know it. With it – for many women – comes the fear of showing their bodies at the gym or beach. And so, the only logical solution is to keep everything covered to make others comfortable. Body shaming happens, but that shouldn't stop you from wearing what you want.

In this episode, I'm breaking down some important things to consider if and when you choose to hide your body for the comfort of others. Undoubtedly, this is a highly nuanced and layered conversation, but I'm hoping you can begin to sort through it by asking yourself some simple but important questions. In short, wear the shorts – or don't – this season, but do it because it's what you fully choose.

How wearing something because you want to can set others free

0:00.0	Hello, welcome to episode 192 of Harder to Kill Radio. I'm Steph Godro, your host, and
0:08.0	this is the Fierce Love Friday edition of this podcast, where I get on the mic by myself and talk about things that are going on in the
0:18.0	community, things that I'm thinking about, things that
0:25.0	things that people are struggling with and hopefully give you a little bit of insight. Today I'm going to be following a similar approach to episode 190 that was last Friday
0:31.0	where I'm recording a bit of a shorter show and I was kind of
0:34.7	surprised I didn't get a ton of feedback either way negative or positive about
0:39.9	the length of the show it was about 12 minutes and my average Fearful Fridays are about 20 to 25 minutes. So hey, I'm going to do it again and we'll see what happens. But I'm just playing around with some different shorter versions of things that I've been writing about and sort of then recording it and expanding upon it a little bit.
0:59.4	So we'll see if you have some strong feedback either way feel free to reach out to me on
1:05.2	social media and let me know this has been a bit of a busy week I spent last weekend in
1:11.6	Phoenix and it was an amazing trip. I was there for the
1:15.9	Beauty Kenner lead conference which was fantastic and got to meet so many
1:20.4	amazing people got to hear from so many amazing people, got to hear from so many inspiring people in all sorts of different areas of leadership
1:28.6	and courage, which of course if you've been following along is my word for 2019. A practice is what they call it.
1:38.3	So that was really fun and then on Saturday this coming weekend I'm heading up to
1:47.5	Los Angeles. I live in San Diego and Los Angeles is not quote that far away but man that drive gets me and it's not the easiest but I'm heading up to
1:59.2	Speak at one of Joe Coleman's amazing events for fitness professionals so I'm excited about
2:05.2	that lots going on lots of crazy things happening but it's all good. My call to
2:10.8	action today is to make sure that you grab your pre-order bonuses for my book that's
2:17.8	coming out this summer, the core for, if you haven't pre-ordered yet, what are you waiting for?
