How to Stop Apologising for Your Body
Feeling apologetic about your body isn’t a personal flaw.
It’s cultural conditioning.
And once you see where these thoughts come from — and how they’re reinforced — you can start to unlearn them.
In this episode, Emma walks you through the KNOW → GROW → GLOW method she uses with clients who want to feel unapologetic in their bodies:
KNOW
See where your body thoughts actually come from and how they became so automatic.
GROW
Learn how to feel and process the emotions that sit underneath body criticism — so you stop reacting from shame and start responding with clarity.
GLOW
Shift into small, believable thoughts and actions that build body respect — the real foundation of becoming unapologetic.
You’ll learn:
• Why positive thinking and “body love” won’t work
• How cultural messaging shaped your beliefs about your body
• Why emotions like shame and dread show up around your reflection
• How to feel emotions without needing to fix your body
• What respectful body actions look like in real life
• How to start building confidence from evidence, not appearance
