I’ve struggled with body image for years—feeling self-conscious about the changes my body has gone through and frustrated with my relationship with food. For a long time, I compared myself to others and wished I looked different, which affected my confidence and how I showed up in relationships. Over time, I learned that criticizing or hiding my body only held me back. I started focusing on self-compassion, listening to my body, and celebrating what it does for me. Now, I approach my body with kindness and confidence, and I hope to help others feel empowered, more comfortable in their own skin, and at peace with themselves.
