Have you ever looked in the mirror and felt gratitude and criticism at the same time? In this episode of It’s Both, host Nikki P and guest Heather Lefebvre share authentic conversations and honest storytelling about the emotional complexity of body image—how media, childhood messages, and parenting shape the way we see ourselves.
Together, they practice both/and thinking in the messy middle: confidence and insecurity, acceptance and doubt. You’ll hear practical ideas for self-compassion, sitting with shame without spiraling, and learning to feel your feelings while you rewrite unhelpful narratives. They also explore body neutrality vs. body positivity, representation, and the invisible pressure many caregivers carry.
If you’re on a personal growth journey—reclaiming your body story, navigating identity, or parenting in a culture obsessed with appearance—this episode offers language, validation, and companionship for navigating life’s gray areaswithout toxic positivity. Because healing isn’t linear, and your body’s wisdom belongs at the center.
Because life isn’t either/or—it’s both.
