You Don't Need to "Bounce Back"

In this podcast episode, Susan discusses the important relationship between our bodies and our sense of self, emphasizing that it's okay not to love your body all the time. She introduces the concept of body neutrality as a more practical and achievable goal, highlighting that body acceptance follows forgiveness and respecting one's body. Susan challenges the notion of needing to "bounce back" after significant life changes, like having a baby or surviving a global pandemic, and suggests that we deserve clothes that fit our current bodies. She also provides practical advice on preparing for events and shopping without focusing on sizes, ultimately encouraging listeners to be kinder and gentler to themselves and embrace the changes in their bodies without external pressure or judgment.
