Content Warning: This episode discusses difficult subjects, such as trauma, abuse, disordered eating, self-harm, and body image. If you or someone you know is struggling, help is available.

Todays episode is a tough one… but a necessary one. I have done episodes like this in the past, and I can promise you that there will be continued conversations on these topics in the future. And that is really the point: we cannot have these conversations enough. Conversations about body image... about self love... about the less Instaglamorous sides of healing and self care.

If you are feeling a little off-center trying to navigate some sense of normalcy in your daily life while the world is in the state that it is… you are not alone. I want you to remember that your body is your most important asset. It is on your team. It is your partner. It is so worthy of your care and love and time and kind attention.

Nurturing yourself will always be the greatest investment and I hope that the time you invest listening to this podcast offers a sense of nourishment for you.

On today's episode, I am joined by Audrey Sutton Mills, who is a self-love teacher devoted to helping women quiet the inner critic and return to their truest selves: worthy, whole, free, and sovereign. Through her writing, programs, podcast, and retreats, she guides women toward deeper alignment and their fullest expression.

Today, I have the pleasure of discussing Audrey's new book, Quiet the Itty Bitty Shitty Committee: Five Self-Love Tools to Silence Your Inner Critic and Reclaim Your Worth.

This book and this conversation is so beautifully human, and everyone navigating this journey of life can benefit from the wisdom and insights Audrey so vulnerably, openly, and generously shares. I walked away from this conversation feeling so much self-compassion, and a renewed sense of lightness and self-love… I know that you will too.
