The Embrace Podcast - Body Shaming & Body Image Issues
play

05/11/22 • 16 min

One of the issues that contribute to body image is body shaming; both the subtle and the pronounced ones. Body image is not independent. A lot of factors contribute to how a person chooses to see themselves through the lens of their bodies, and body shaming is one of them. People have their expectations of what the ideal body should look like and they're quick to project those expectations on people who don't seem to match them. In this episode, I shared some of the body shaming experiences I've had as a skinny girl, and how some of them contributed in my already poor self-esteem. I talk about how body shaming causes you to doubt and question yourself. If you've ever been on the receiving end of body shaming remarks, you can relate to how limiting it can be, and I'm sure you'll be able to relate to some of the things in talked about in this episode. And if you're ready to learn how to deal with it, then you're in the right place! Here are the things I talked about in this episode: • How body shaming makes you doubt and question yourself. You analyze comments so much that you begin to wonder if it's correct. • How to navigate these comments and deal with the toxicity. Understanding that these comments do not define you. • Why building a positive body image is important in navigating bad comments. Even if you don't completely love your body, building a positive body image helps you live a confident and happy life • Beauty standards are constantly changing and I talked about how this points to the fact that they're not important enough for you to hinge your self-esteem on • How to set boundaries and not accept demeaning comments and jokes about your body • Ensuring that you are not contributing to body shaming culture; to yourself and to other people • Lastly, I talked about what body shaming is not.

The Embrace Podcast - Body Shaming: The Way Forward
play

06/07/22 • 31 min

Day in day out, people continually have to deal with rude and unsolicited comments on their bodies. It's everywhere; on the streets and on the net. In this episode, I did a sort of an interview asking people to share their body shaming experiences and how it made them feel, and the responses I got were mind-blowing. From being disqualified at an interview without given the chance to prove your ability, simply because "you're too thin, you don't look like you can handle this job" to being the subject of public humor in your school. These are the sad realities that people have to face and I published this episode to open people up to these realities. And not just stop there, make them see the effects of their "jokes", and also to discuss what possible solutions there are for the way forward. Here are the things you'd find in this episode: *00:00 Intro *03:27 Body shaming experiences from listeners *17:02 The problems and effects of body shaming *19:00 Body shaming on social media *21:45 Beauty expectations and standard *22:30 Dealing with Body Shaming: *22:40 #Step 1- Not being a part of the culture *26:65 #Step 2- Zero tolerance for body shaming *28:22 #Step 3- Dealing with insecurities *30:33 #Step 4- Understanding your worth -> Other resources mentioned in this episode: •What body shaming is not. From the "Body Shaming and Body image Issues" episode: https://anchor.fm/buildyourselfesteem/episodes/Body-Shaming--Body-Image-Issues-e1icdph -> If you'd also like to share your body shaming experiences with me, feel free to send me a message.
