Your Body Isn’t Holding You Back with Taryn Brumfitt: Weight & Metabolism Series
In this inspiring episode of What’s My Body Telling Me?, Dr Anthea Todd sits down with Taryn Brumfitt, award winning filmmaker, bestselling author, and 2023 Australian of the Year. Together, they explore one of the most deeply rooted experiences in women’s lives: our relationship with our bodies. They unpack why so many women grow up believing their bodies are a problem, how cultural pressure shapes our self worth, and what it truly takes to build a relationship with your body that is grounded in respect instead of criticism.
From the rise of body comparison to the systems that keep women stuck in shame, Taryn reveals how perfectionism, people pleasing and “should culture” disconnect us from ourselves. She explains why body neutrality is often more realistic and healing than forced positivity, and how reconnecting with your body can transform every part of your life.
You’ll learn:
- Why so many women feel uncomfortable in their bodies from childhood
- How cultural expectations condition girls to prioritise appearance
