Ashleigh talks with college student and food freedom advocate, Molly Jones, about developing a positive body image, ditching the diet, and navigating social media. We tackle some hard questions: How do you stop comparing yourself to everyone you see on Instagram? How do you finally pull yourself out of a vicious cycle of dieting? How do you learn to stop hating your body? None of this is particularly easy, but we are figuring it out. You can follow Molly on Instagram @munchwithmojo . And follow the pod @thefiguringitoutpod ! The National Eating Disorders Association also has a helpline, which operates from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. EST Monday to Thursday. On Fridays, it runs from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. EST. (800) 931-2237 . This episode is in memory of Sunny Von G, who was an honorary, mischievous member of the FIO podcast team.
