The Body Love Dilemma

Sobre este episódio

<p>*CW: Disordered Eating*</p><p>Revz is zapping off braid-able leg hair and Gem is in a winter wardrobe funk (oh, it's that time of year again). Yep, Gem is feeling lazy in terms of grooming and decides she wants to groom with a divorce mentality. It's all about the tension between wanting to be majorly hot and not giving even one f*ck about how you look, which we can all relate to. But real talk, Gem is ready for a glow-up and Revz wants to swoop in like a Mama-Bear-Art-Director and finally make her a capsule wardrobe. Then Revz is facing yet another phase of body image stuff and she doesn't have time for the fragility of it all. And this conversation exhausts us both as it soaks up so much time and energy but we really do want the cycle to end with us. Gem is finidng "body love" can be a bandaid and yet another pressure. Revz wants to know how to balance the mental health and physical strength benefits of exercise and nutrition with the demons that come with food and exercise and luckily we have #notspons to focus on so we can have a goddamn break from thinking about our bodies. Love you Besties, glad you're here.</p><p>If you or someone you know needs support, please call 1800 33 4673 or visit The Butterfly Foundation at www.butterfly.org.au</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
