Navigating Body Image Pregnancy & Postpartum with Dr. Lexie Kite

Описание: In this episode of the MamasteFit podcast, hosts Gina and Roxanne welcome Lexie Kite, co-author of 'More Than a Body,' to discuss the challenges of body image during pregnancy and postpartum. Lexie, who holds a PhD in body image and objectification, shares her insights on how women can develop body image resilience amid societal pressures. The conversation covers the importance of viewing the body as an instrument rather than an ornament, the problematic nature of BMI in assessing individual health, and practical tips for new mothers to prioritize self-compassion and functionality over aesthetics. The episode underscores the significance of reshaping body image narratives for future generations. Listeners are encouraged to focus on health and functionality while appreciating the profound capabilities of their bodies during and after pregnancy.
