The Lie of the Goal Weight: Why Focusing on Weight Loss Won't Make You Happy|Ep.106

Many women believe that they'll be happy once they reach their goal weight. However, this is rarely the case. In fact, research shows that people who lose weight often experience a decrease in self-esteem and an increase in anxiety and depression.

This is because focusing on weight loss as a way to achieve happiness is a distraction from the real work that needs to be done: healing from negative body image.

In this episode, we'll talk about why the goal weight myth is so harmful and what women can do instead of focusing on a goal weight. We'll also share tips on how to heal from negative body image and find true happiness.
