<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Who are some of the people you admire most? </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">They can be people you know personally, or people in the public eye, like celebrities, thought leaders, or artists.  Anyone. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Now think about what you admire </span> <strong>most</strong> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">about each one. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">How many of them did you say, “their body?”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Although I admire many people, what their body looks like does not make it near the top of my list for anyone on it.  </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When I think of these people, I don’t think about what their bodies look like. I think about who they are. What they do. How they make the world a better place. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Even for someone like Beyoncé.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Likewise, what</span> <strong>your</strong> <span style="font-weight: 400;">body looks like is one of the least important things about you. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I know, that sounds strange coming from a coach who helps people lose weight, but it’s true.

They’re stuck  because of how they feel about themselves. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Are you one of these folx?</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Listen to learn  how to love yourself enough to take proper care of your body, and why road to a healthy body image is in fixing how you think about yourself more than it is changing your body. </span></p>
