Description

In this episode, Danni opens up about a week that felt like a complete emotional rollercoaster. From struggling with body image and motivation, to realising she’s lost 30lbs but still can’t always see the change, she explores the reality of body dysmorphia and how our minds can take longer to catch up with the progress we’ve made. After a simple compliment left her feeling uncomfortable, she reflects on why so many of us struggle to receive kindness… even when we so freely give it to others. This episode also touches on identity, motherhood, and the shifts that happen in our 30s and 40s as life changes and we’re left asking… who am I now?

Episode 11: Learning To Be Kinder To Myself

This episode is a vulnerable one. Danni opens up about her complicated relationship with her body, the years of self-criticism, and how hard it actually is to learn to be kind to yourself after decades of doing the opposite. From dancing around the kitchen in her pyjamas and hitting record, to reflecting on body image, grief, motherhood, and the generational patterns passed down between women… this is an honest conversation about what it really looks like to try and change the way you see yourself. This isn’t about loving your body overnight. It’s about learning to be a little bit softer, a little bit kinder… and coming back to yourself again and again. There’s also a gentle reminder in this episode: how we speak about ourselves matters… because the next generation is listening. If you’ve ever struggled to feel comfortable in your own skin, this one is for you.
