How do you feel about your body? Have you ever stayed home from a social activity or other opportunity because of concern about how you looked? Have you ever passed judgment on someone because of how they looked or dressed? Have you ever had difficulty concentrating on a task because you were self-conscious about your appearance? This is self-objectification and it is the result of our beauty-obsessed world perpetuating the idea that happiness, health, and ability to be loved are dependent on how we look. Drs. Lindsay and Lexie Kite teach that positive body image isn’t believing your body looks good, it’s knowing your body is good, regardless of how it looks. They provide the tools to build resilience in a culture that objectifies and commodifies women’s bodies. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Hi.
You are identical twins and co authors of the book more than a body.
Your body is an instrument, not an ornament.
Co directors of the nonprofit beauty Redefine, and both received PhDs in the study, a female body image.
I am so excited to have this conversation today with both of you.
We are, too.
