153: Fat Phobia and Body Size Acceptance - Real Talk for Teens
Diet culture, weight stigma, and fat-phobia all contribute to our perceptions of ideal body image and promote endless comparisons. In this candid episode, Gabrielle Katz talks with me about the influence of societal ideals and media messages on shaping all our relationships with our bodies, and it’s inescapable pressure on teens. Plus, why chasing thinness isn’t the path to true health, and how it can harm teens emotionally, physically, and socially. Discover actionable steps for boosting body image, using clothing as self-expression, navigating social media, and fostering supportive family communication. This episode offers practical advice for both teens and parents, for building lasting self-esteem and confidence.
