How to Feel Confident in Your Body With a Chronic Illness ft March Hollingbery

Описание: Happy New Year’s Eve!!

We’re ending the year on a high with a very special guest: Melissa’s oldest friend, the gorgeous March Hollingbery. March is a chronic illness coach who supports women living with chronic illness to feel more confident and at home in their bodies.

The girls deep dive into everything from unlearning toxic productivity and navigating relationships, to advice on how to be a supportive friend to someone who’s living with a chronic illness.

Plus, Melissa and March are put to the test with the Cosmopolitan Quiz of 2025. Who else forgot that Katy Perry went to space this year?!

In this week’s dilemmas, one Tiny has recently been diagnosed with endometriosis and wants to know how to feel sexy and beautiful.

Another Tiny needs advice after her boyfriend won’t stop following a girl he used to like, even after she’s told him it makes her uncomfortable. Is she overreacting or is this a simple fix?
