In this episode of Gynocurious, Dr. Amy Novatt engages in an enlightening dialogue with Nina Manolson, M.A., a renowned coach and founder of Body-Peace. The discussion delves into the pervasive issue of body shaming and the constant critical inner voice that many individuals, particularly women, face regarding their bodies. Amy and Nina examine various approaches to fostering a healthier, more accepting, and peaceful relationship with one's body. Nina shares her personal journey from experiencing "body war" to cultivating Body Peace, emphasizing the importance of shifting towards self-compassion and integrity.

Throughout the episode, the conversation explores the societal paradox wherein women's bodies are both revered and shamed, tracing this inconsistency to deep-rooted issues like misogyny, racism, and the commercialization of body image.

The dialogue transitions to practical tips on how listeners can begin to cultivate a more harmonious relationship with their bodies, starting with simple yet profound steps like acknowledging and greeting their bodies with kindness.
