Ep. 28 - Self-Quarantine? Self-Love

Hey friends! Hope everyone is staying safe and cared for. This week we're doing a little chat about body positivity and radical self-love. Using Sonya Renee Taylor's bold and brilliant book The Body Is Not An Apology as an entry point into our conversation, we have a frank chat about body-shaming, the differences between self-love and self-acceptance, modes of healing, unlearning self-hate, and how a framework of love could maybe just change the world. As we all hunker down, slow our lifestyles, and experience increasing isolation in quarantine, Sonya's message of love and self-compassion was one we wanted to lift up, and we hope our conversation brings some comfort, lightness, and hope to our listeners as well!
