Life After Diets


Apr 12, 2023

A topic we haven't broached on this podcast to date: SEX.

How do we navigate intimacy when we're dealing with body image issues?

This episode is juicy -- you don't want to miss it. We'll cover:

  • A taboo topic to begin with – no wonder we have shame!
  • The typical female avatar; why would we assume anyone would like our body just as it is??
  • What Leah learned in Jamaica
  • The issue of TRUST when it comes to what our partner thinks of us
  • What if my partner is not interested in me since I’ve gained weight?
  • New relationship energy
  • A common narrative in sex lives of parents
  • Socialization of females to fix things and make things better for everyone
  • Confidence and weight; chicken or egg?
  • How disconnected we have become from our bodies and how we feel
  • Communication, scripts, asking directly for feedback
  • The Three Minute Game (link: www.leahcarey.com/threeminutes)
  • Testosterone and estrogen
