Welcome to the Body Peace Podcast (formerly Herstory on a Plate). We are so excited to bring you the Body Peace Podcast—a space for deep, compassionate, real conversations about our relationships with our bodies, food, and the world around us. What began as Herstory on a Plate has grown into something deeper. As conversations evolved, so did our mission. Body Peace® is about stepping off the battlefield with yourself. It’s not about fixing, controlling, or striving for perfection—it’s about finding peace, reconnecting with your body, and learning to return to yourself again and again.

When one partner embarks on a weight
loss journey, it can have a significant impact on the other partner, even if
they are not actively trying to lose weight themselves. This blog post explores
the different ways this can happen, and offers tips for navigating these
challenges.
Key points:
• Partners of people who are losing weight may experience envy, insecurity, and a feeling that their own body is being judged.
• The way weight loss is achieved can also be a source of tension, especially if it involves quick fixes, surgery, or medications.
• Social situations can be difficult for partners of people who are losing weight, as they may be bombarded with comments about their partner's appearance.
• It's important to remember that body size is not the only thing that matters, and that compliments can be focused on other aspects of a person.
