Unleash Your Inner Creative with Lauren LoGrasso (A Creativity Podcast)

Body Neutrality: A Healing Tool to Help You Overcome Body Image Issues & Step Into Your Worthiness w/ Jessi Kneeland

1h02 | 05/10/2023

Description

TW: Eating Disorders and Body image.

Today’s guest is Jessi Kneeland. They are a queer and non-binary writer, speaker, podcaster and body image coach. Jessi started off as a physical trainer-- working with everyone from celebrities to supermodels and they found something interesting -no matter the body type, their clients always thought their bodies were not enough. This led Jessi to dig into their own body image, traumas and past to finally discover what helped them start their healing journey, which is something they call, Body Neutrality.

As someone who has long suffered with a bevy of body image issues including eating disorders, disordered eating and just generally never feeling Like I have the “right” body…I can honestly say I find Jessi's work revolutionary and healing in such a deep way, it’s hard to really put into words. Between their book Body Neutral, which comes out this June (and I highly recommend you pre-order now) and this conversation, I feel like I’m finally on a path to do some deep healing and rewiring in this area. I hope this chat will do the same for you.

From today’s chat, you’ll learn:

What exactly body neutrality is
How to stop self-objectifying
How to get embodied
How to build up self-advocacy and become your own protector
How to find your Body Image Avatar
How to get to the bottom of your body story
How to distinguish body positivity from body neutrality
What happens to your creativity when you take the focus off of how you look
And SO much more!
