Body Confidence & Nutrition | With Lauren (The London Wellness Coach)

In this episode of Beyond The Studio, Hayley sits down with Lauren, The London Wellness Coach, to explore the connection between body image, hormone balance, and overall wellbeing.
Together, they dive into a topic that feels more relevant than ever, body image! The impact of social media and the rise of comparison, especially for young people is at an all time high. In a world where bodies, lifestyles and “perfection” are constantly on display, Lauren shares why it’s so important we help young people build a strong, informed and confident relationship with themselves.
Lauren opens up about her own journey with body confidence as a young girl, and how education around nutrition, hormones and lifestyle helped her move away from restriction and into a healthy, balanced relationship with food and her body.
They discuss:
• How to educate ourselves and our children around nutrition
• Supporting hormone health (including PCOS) through lifestyle
• Building body confidence in a comparison-driven world
• Creating sustainable habits for the whole family
This is a reassuring, empowering conversation for parents and young people, with practical guidance to help shift the focus from restriction to understanding, and from comparison to confidence 💛
