Ever felt like you're racing against the clock to get your body "swimsuit ready"? You're not alone! We're getting real about the pressure we face to transform our bodies overnight, especially when life is already hectic. From the evolutionary need to bulk up during colder months, to navigating the ever-changing trends of what our bodies should look like, we're sharing our personal struggles and laughing along the way (especially as I'm being attacked by fruit flies and Jess is swatting at the air).But it's not just about swimsuit season – it's the lasting impacts of societal pressures on body image that have stuck with us since growing up in the 90s. We reflect on our own experiences, like going through puberty early and dealing with eating disorders, and how these have shaped our relationship with our bodies today. Join us as we normalize these stories and explore the complexities of body confidence, even when the world seems to be telling us we should look a certain way.DO YOU LOVE HONEST WOMEN?!If you know a woman who could use a little more honest conversation in her life….aka every woman ever…please SHARE this podcast with a friend!If you like what you hear, please leave us a 5⭐ rating and a review - we love to hear from you!CONNECT WITH US:Follow Honest Women Podcast @honestwomenpodcastFollow Jessica: @jlhutchisonlcpcFollow Andrea: @andreaburklyLearn more about the Honest Women Podcast: www.honestwomenpodcast.comHonest Women is the podcast for every woman juggling the demands of modern life (while trying to keep her shit together) and finding that it’s all just a little more difficult than she thought it would be.  Your hosts, Andrea Burkly and Jessica Hutchison, are two very real mental health professionals who are taking honest conversations from inside their offices to the outside world.Disclaimer:Please note while this podcast features two therapists, and may feel very therapeutic, this is not therapy!
