Caitie, a fellow Registered Dieitian and I sit down to talk about the biggest fear in period recovery. Weight gain & body changes.

Struggling with body image while trying to regain your period can feel like a never ending battle, but it doesn't have to be. Caitie joins us with her expertise in nutrition and body image coaching, providing insights and strategies to help you embrace your body's natural changes and foster a positive relationship with food and exercise. Our heartfelt conversation peels back the societal layers dictating body norms, and we offer practical advice for those feeling stifled by expectations that can disrupt the healing process.

Weight gain fears and the desire for control are real hurdles in period recovery, but together, Caitie and I share personal stories and client experiences that illuminate the path to acceptance. Learn how to replace compulsive behaviors with ones that honor your well-being, and understand why nurturing your body and mind is pivotal for true healing. We explore the depth of these emotional landscapes, offering solace and support to anyone seeking to navigate these complex waters.

Confidence and resilience in a world brimming with judgment are not just ideas but necessary tools. We discuss how to build them by nourishing your body, taking risks aligned with your values, and practicing self-forgiveness. End the episode feeling empowered, knowing that our community is here to support each step towards reclaiming not only your period but a life enriched with self-compassion. Join us on this transformative journey as we continue to break stigmas and build strength in body image resilience.
