In one way or another, everyone grows up telling themselves a story about their body — a story that is reinforced through social media, through pop culture, through our parents’ and friends’ expectations. So it’s no wonder that nearly every girl ends up struggling with their relationship to food and their body at some point while they’re growing up, and social media is just magnifying the pressure that young adults feel to look and act a certain way. I want you to know that you’re not alone. I’m still struggling with this today. You shouldn’t be embarrassed or ashamed, and there is support out there. So, today, I’m going to talk about how I came to acknowledge what was happening in my life and start processing it. You don’t have to walk this path alone.
