Blogger, Talk Show Host, Chronic Illness Advocate, and Self-love Guru--Nitika Chopra--sits down with me to talk about her journey dealing with Psoriasis/Psoriatic Arthritis and the physical, mental, and emotional effects that come with it. She also dives into her self-love practices and what truly made her see her worth. With her calming voice and loving vibe, you'll finish this episode feeling happy, worthy, and free.
Nitika Chopra has been a leader in the wellness industry since she founded her blog in 2010. As the host of the Talk Show Naturally Beautiful on Z-Living and as the on-air expert for Fresh on QVC, Nitika has always empowered women to use beauty as a tangible access point to self-love.

Known for her straight-forwarded tone and intense vulnerability, Nitika recently took everything she had learned from suffering with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis for the past 27 years and created a conversation about self-love in the chronic illness community. With her experience in public speaking, her highly engaged social media following and her raw and honest writing that she shares weekly on her blog, Nitika is determined to get honest with her audience so that they can get honest with themselves in a way that truly transforms lives.

Episode 15: Why the "BMI" is bullsh*t + how to raise body confident kids w/ Dana Suchow

Award-winning speaker, educator, and coach, Dana Suchow, joins me for a chat about her experience with an eating disorder and how that led to her becoming a coach for parents/caregivers who want to raise their children to feel body confident. In our conversation, she gives examples of some amazing tools to use when you/a child is feeling negatively about their body. You don't want to miss this educational, loving, inspiring, and REAL episode.
Since overcoming Bulimia, Binge Eating Disorder and exercise compulsion that resulted in permanent injuries, Dana Suchow has become an expert in the field of body image and eating disorder prevention. Offering a nonclinical and holistic approach, Dana will teach you how to put your child on a path towards body love, empowerment and self-acceptance.

In 2012 Dana founded DoTheHotpants.com as a fashion blog, but once she realized fashion’s unattainable beauty standards were fueling her eating disorder, Dana made the difficult decision to leave the industry and focus on eating disorder prevention and activism. In 2014 Dana founded #MyBodyStory, an ongoing storytelling series created to uplift girl's and women's voices that so often go unheard. In 2016 Dana co-founded The Ripple, a nonprofit nationwide activist collective focused on helping women make waves in their communities. In 2018, Dana was awarded the Girl Up #GirlHero Award by This Is Us star and activist Chrissy Metz.
