Finding Inner Peace in a One-Piece
Episode 4:
Finding Inner Peace in a One-Piece
Bathing suit or Buddha?
Body image after pregnancy isn’t always pretty. It’s messy, complicated, and often the last thing we want to “love” when we look in the mirror. In this week’s episode of Style Like a Mother, I’m getting real about my own body journey—from the sting of a childhood memory to the postpartum mirror check that damn near broke me.
You’ll hear how pregnancy shifted my relationship with my body, why postpartum was a whole other story, and the breakthrough moment that helped me move from body rejection to true unconditional love.
This isn’t about toxic positivity or “just be grateful.” It’s about redefining love for a body that doesn’t feel like yours anymore—and creating peace whether you’re rocking a bikini or hiding in a one piece.
What you’ll hear in this episode:
-
My complicated relationship with my body, from childhood to motherhood
-
The shock of postpartum body changes (and why TV lies about “snapping back”)
-
The difference between “body love” and unconditional love
-
A surprising mirror moment with another mom that shifted everything
-
Three unconventional body love letters that can change how you see yourself
