🎙️ Episode Summary:

In this vulnerable and life-giving episode of Me & Re, Reanna sits down with her friend Katy Harrison to talk about body image, shame, and the freedom we can find in Jesus. Through the lens of Jess Connolly’s book Breaking Free from Body Shame, the two women share honest reflections from their own lives—navigating chronic illness, post-COVID changes, unrealistic cultural standards, and what it means to treat your body like it’s already good. 

They talk about healing, health, purpose, and how the Gospel speaks directly to our body image struggles. If you’ve ever felt too broken, too different, or too discouraged in your own skin, this conversation will breathe fresh hope into your heart.

What We Talk About:

• How childhood memories shape our body beliefs
  

• Reframing health from a biblical perspective
  

• Why “your body is good” isn’t self-help—it’s Gospel truth
  

• The small (but powerful) choices that support body stewardship
  

💬 Favorite Quote:

“If I treat my body like it’s bad, I’ll believe it’s broken. If I treat it like it’s good, I’ll begin to believe God’s truth.”
