The Lisa Show

Lisa and Whitney Call continue their conversation on part two of Chapter 4 of More Than a Body by Drs. Lindsay & Lexie Kite, "From Divided To United as Women". What changes when we replace appearance-based commentary and language with new conversations and topics? Breaking these habits is tricky, and requires a lot grace as we learn new ways to appreciate ourselves and each other. Lisa and Whitney examine their own internal monologues about body standards, and how the people in their circles responded to major changes in their appearance. Lisa remembers a compliment that felt like a dagger to the heart, and Whitney reflects on what she learned about parenting and anxiety from the reactions she received when she shaved her head. They discuss how women can find compassion and vulnerability with each other, and unite in their shared journey to self-love and a healthy body image.
