In our first episode, we’re tackling shame head on! The hosts bring us back to their childhoods and discuss some of their earliest body memories. Plus, we hear what shame they’ve had to unlearn to come into their own as women today. You’ll hear more about how they self-talk to start the day, how they’re teaching their kids about body image, and why they relate to Venus sculptures carved 300 centuries ago.  The Body Collective series is sponsored by WeightWatchers.

Welcome to the Body Collective. We’re on a mission to change the way we talk about weight. In this series, we're chatting with friends and experts to help us navigate the hard conversations so we can listen to our bodies, advocate for ourselves, and feel more comfortable in our skin. With the use of new weight-loss medications on the rise, people seem to be talking about weight more than ever — but how do we do so in a way that feels healthy, empowering, and informed?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
