I'm joined by Tiffany Ima, who is also a body image coach. She shares her story of how she developed exercise bulimia and bulimia and what helped her to overcome that. We also talk about why body neutrality isn't enough for her, how she's learned to celebrate and embrace her body, and the importance of using self-expression to heal.
In this episode, we talk about:
- Her relationship with her body growing up and when her body image took a turn for the worse,
- How the diet culture mentality remained even after she was recovered from her eating disorder,
- What she called her "personal recovery phase,"
- The comment that led her to shift her mindset and find her current path,
- How body neutrality helped her initially and why she no longer feels it's enough,
- Why she worked to expand her idea of beauty and define her own beauty standard,
