Did Friends, Bridget Jones, and the supermodels of the 90s influence how you feel about body size? Did you take your fitness advice from the front covers of magazines like Vogue and Cosmopolitan?
If you grew up believing that your worth hinged on your body size, you might be a Xennial (or a Boomer, or a Millennial, or Gen Z)... and we are (Xennials) too.
Join us for the second, and final, installment of our body image series. Please know today's episode discusses disordered eating, addiction to exercise, body dysmorphia, and other topics that may be detrimental to your mental health. We understand if you need to skip this one -- please take care of yourself.
