This solo episode with Krista is a raw, unfiltered conversation on body image, wellness culture, and the emotional cost of chasing the “perfect” body. Krista opens up about the toxic side of influencer culture, body shame, and how social media disconnects women from themselves.
From disordered eating + GLP-1 conversations to nervous system healing + identity work, Krista shares the powerful mindset shifts that helped her stop obsessing over weight + finally feel at home in her body.
If you’ve ever compared yourself to others, felt trapped in diet culture, or believed your happiness lived on the other side of being thinner, this episode will change the way you see your body. This is about healing your relationship with yourself, and finally learning how to feel free in your own skin.
