SHE BREAKS THE RULES
She Breaks the Rules is the podcast for women who are done following health “rules” that are outdated and don’t work, and are ready to rewrite the rules to suit their health and life.
Hosted by Faye Sheridan and Tarryn Williams, we will help you challenge the norms, dare you to think differently, and inspire you to take bold, self led action in your health and wellbeing.
This is about breaking free from diet culture, understanding yourself and your body and learning what health really looks like for you.
Expect raw conversations, expert insights, personal stories, and no-BS strategies on women’s health, menstrual cycle, body image, gut health, emotional eating, stress, hormones, mindset, and more.
We’re here to empower you to come home to your body, trust yourself, and take control — on your terms.
You’re only one decision away from changing your life.
Hit follow and let’s break the rules — together.

EP #20 What To Do on a Bad Body Image Day (And YES, we still have them too!)
If you wake up and instantly feel “ugh” about your body…
If getting dressed feels like a battle…
If you’ve cancelled plans, avoided mirrors, or let your mood crash because of how you think you look…
This episode is for you. 💜
We’re diving deep into what to actually DO when you’re having a bad body image day and how to stop letting it control your mood, your choices, and your life.
Because here’s the truth: we’ve done the work, and we still have those days.
The difference now? We don’t spiral.
And we’re here to teach you how to do the same.
Inside this episode, we share:
💬 Real talk about what a bad body image day looks like (yes, even for us)
💥 Why trying to “love your body” isn’t always the answer
🔁 The vicious body image cycle—and how to break out of it
🧠 The ONE mindset shift that changes everything
Plus, our top 6 practical tools to use on the hard days:
- Wear what feels GOOD—tight pants are not the vibe today.
- Shift your focus outward—stop obsessing, start living.
- Get out of your head—walk it out, write it down, talk it through.
- Ask yourself: Am I really going to let this ruin my day?
- Ditch the scales. Seriously. Not today, not tomorrow.
- Check your cycle, your sleep, and your stress. Your body is responding to more than just food.
This episode is your starting point.
You don’t need a new diet.
You need a new way to relate to your body.
Final takeaway?
Your body image journey won't be linear, but the way you talk to yourself can make or break it. Compassion, curiosity and conscious choices are your new body image toolkit.
Ask yourself: How would I treat myself today if my goal was to feel neutral, or even kind, towards my body?
