Tell us your story!

From a young age, many girls are exposed to body image issues and eating habits that may not be the most uplifting. Years go by, and that young girl shows her daughter the very same habits. But it is possible to break the cycles passed down from generation to generation with God’s love, grace, and support.

Chantia Sturman, licensed therapist and founder of Darling, Arise (which you’ll hear more about), joins Chrissy to share how moms can build body confidence in daughters, and even find healing in the process.

You’ll discover the best time to start having food and body image conversations with daughters, the power of curiosity in challenging moments, and small yet powerful shifts you can start with today!

As you’ll hear, what you model matters so much more than what you say.

If anything in this conversation stood out to you, we’d love to hear! You can text us using the link above. It’s one-way (translation: we can’t reply), but we read every message, and you might just hear an answer to your question on a future episode.
