Description

We often think that body image struggles are just for the young—but for many women, the reflection in the mirror becomes even more complicated with age. In this episode of Wellness for Real at Any Age, we explore what it really means to make peace with your appearance as you grow older. Learn why body image concerns persist (and even intensify) in midlife, how to challenge the inner critic, and the power of shifting from criticism to compassion. With real-life examples, practical mindset tools, and a fresh take on what it means to age well, this is an empowering listen for anyone tired of shrinking or hiding.
