38: "Postpartum body image was like a whole different ball game" - Snapback culture with Alex Light
Today I'm talking to the incredible Alex Light, a body acceptance advocate and author of You Are Not a Before Picture. In this conversation we're talking about all the really insidious and toxic messaging we get around postpartum bodies.
In this episode we discuss:
π Snapback culture and the horrendous ways it shows up for birthing people
π How our bodies can change during and after pregnancy and the shame often associated with this
π The anti-fatness of '9 months in, 9 months out' pictures
π Ways to help protect your embodiment in the postpartum period
