Part 2: Learning to Love the Skin I’m In (Or At Least Try)

Part 2: Learning to Love the Skin I’m In (Or At Least Try)

The conversation continues, and this time, it gets emotional. Vic opens up about the real pain of body dissatisfaction, how it affects her self-worth, and the heartbreaking realisation of what message that might be sending her kids. Meanwhile, Hamish reflects on whether men really experience body image struggles in the same way—and if they do, why don’t they talk about it?


But don’t worry, we don’t leave you in a puddle of sadness. By the end, we’re flipping the script and giving you tools to break free from the body-hating cycle. Expect some questionable but empowering bathroom mirror affirmations, some real talk about separating our worth from our weight, and answers to the big question: Can we actually learn to accept ourselves?


A tough, heart felt episode, but one that so many people will relate to. If you’ve ever looked in the mirror and not liked what you saw, this one’s for you. 💛
