Sara Alexander

Today on Love Your Bodd we have an interview with Sara Alexander, a British-Sardinian actress &amp; author. We talk about female sensuality, vulnerability, and our intellect versus our impulses when it comes to sex. We surround this conversation around the Off West End play in which Sara recently performed, called ‘Rejoicing at Her Wondrous Vulva the Young Woman Applauded Herself.’  (P.S. Sara has been nominated for an Offie (Off West End) award 2020 for her role!!)  We touch on so much more - working in an image based industry, how sex is so taboo to talk about and yet used to sell everything, and we get into a deep conversation about "self love" and why it can be a dangerous term to use.    FIND SARA  Instagram &amp; Twitter: @sarajalexander Website: http://www.saraalexander.net/ Click here for Sara's new book: A Roman Rhapsody!     ______   JOIN THE GEEKNASIUM 5 DAY FREE CHALLENGE (JULY 1ST - 5TH 2019) : https://heather-boddy.com/geeknasiumworkout   ______   GO LIVE IT UP!

93 - Sara Alexander: Feminine Appetite | Sensuality and Bodily Autonomy

Hello Lovers! Today on Love Your Bodd we are going to talk about why you are SO AFRAID to succeed! I'll give you some tools to BANISH your fears by using self-love, self-esteem, self-worth, and compassion.    First things first, I talk a lot about where you get your validation.

The tools I give you in this episode can also help you get rid of the need to seek validation from those other external forces as well.    Link to youtube video about Emotional Intelligence: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjFMCBSRzdw   Link to CALM app: https://www.calm.com/   Get on the waitlist for Heather's Nerdy Workout Program GEEKNASIUM here: https://heather-boddy.com/geeknasiumworkout   ______   GO LIVE IT UP!

"I didn't know where I was going, all I knew was I didn't want to put all of my energy into hating myself anymore." - Amanda J This week on Love Your Bodd, Heather sits down with Amanda Jean: a body image and intuition coach, also a neuroscience nerd who loves personal development and learning about how the brain works. So most of what we talk about has to do with creating mental resilience and how you can use your MIND to overcome SO MUCH! Including - in Amanda's case - abusive/unhealthy relationships, bad self image, AND eating disorders. So today we are going to learn about the POWER OF THE BRAIN! Buckle up, cuz it's awesome.  Find HEATHER on AMANDA'S Podcast - Rich Imperfections Radio:<a href="https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-2fjie-aa8dc2" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-2fjie-aa8dc2</a> ______ Wanna be in the GEEKNASIUM TEST GROUP?

83 - Laura J M: There's No Such Thing As Perfect | Finding Confidence & Fighting Comparison

We all have insecurities. You are not alone in your struggles. Love Your Bodd is a podcast focused on creating a dialogue around body image, specifically in the arts. In Love Your Bodd, Heather Boddy sits down with artists, activists, and health/fitness professionals to discuss body image, race, and how our insecurities make us who we are. The lack of representation in the arts and media is overwhelming. It's time to hold up a mirror to the industry and talk about how it can affect us. It's also time to hold a mirror up to ourselves and truly love that person we see staring back at us. Do you love your bodd?

Love Your Bodd is the PERFECT podcast for LA traffic. I feel inspired and more confident with every listen. Heather is a fabulous host and her conversations with guests are truly fascinating. Keep it up!! ❤️

The BEST content to feel inspired

Heather truly gets it! She is inspirational in all she does and shares that with others every week in this podcast! I love hearing what all the guests bring to the table! Everyone has their own journey and story and after listening you feel the love! Love of yourself and a connection with others! You are not alone! Heather is a fantastic host that will make you want to keep coming back to listen!

Leaves your feeling inspired and loved!!

Together, Heather and Hallie talk about comments from family members on their body/weight, the problems with the “plus sized section,” Hallie growing up a “Tomboy," her sexuality, TACO BELL, and so much more.    Find Hallie: Instagram: @nothallieberry      Love Your Bodd Stuffz   Email LYB: loveyourboddcast@gmail.com   Tweet: @LoveYourBodd   Instagram: @love_your_bodd   Facebook: Love Your Bodd   Find Heather @HeatherBoddy on Snapchat, Twitter &amp; Instagram www.heather-boddy.com/loveyourbodd   GET HELP: Love Your Bodd is a proud supporter of the Born This Way Foundation - check out their resources page to get help for whatever issue you might be facing -  https://bornthisway.foundation/get-help-now/   Wanna become a Pop Pilates Instructor?

76 - Note to Self: Take Care of Your Body While You Travel 

Hi Lovers! Megan Yelaney is BACK! YAY!! She's been on the podcast a couple times before - her first full episode is titled "Protect Your Mind" and in that interview we dive deep into her journey with exercise and becoming a health/fitness coach. In THIS Episode, we discuss the many ways her life has changed since then by having clients "Ditch the Diet" and find ways to eat that work best for them. One way she has done that is through incorporating Intermittent Fasting - which we discuss in minor detail. See reference links for more info.  We also discuss the THREE most common - and also most costly mistakes that people make when they decide to take on a new lifestyle -    3 Costly Mistakes People Make When Trying to Create a "Healthy" Lifestyle: 1. GOING ALL IN RIGHT AWAY: Having an "all or nothing" mentality inevitably ends up making you feel like a failure after the smallest human mistakes. Baby steps are the way to go.  2. UNREALISTIC EXPECTATIONS: Things take longer than you think they will. 3. TRY TO GO IT ALONE: Accountability is KEY. Having others to help you out is not only awesome motivation but it also makes the process more FUN!    Find Megan: Instagram &amp; Snapchat: @MeganYelaneyBlog: FitActorTravels.com YouTube: Megan Yelaney FB: facebook.com/MeganYelaneyFitness  Pinterest: Megan Yelaney Referenced In This Episode: Megan's Intermittent Fasting (IF) Blog Posts:   How Intermittent Fasting Can Improve your Health Help you lose fat  Intermittent Fasting: How to Do It The Right Way for YOUR Body  Intermittent Fasting for Women: The 5 Top Myths and to Not Let it Stop You Intermittent Fasting for Women: How to do it Safely and Lose Fat Chalene Johnson's IF Podcast Episodes:  Stop Dieting Jimmy More  Sara Solomon Pt 1  Sara Solomon Pt 2 Chalene Johnson's All-or-Nothing Mindset Podcast Episode:  The All Or Nothing Mindset is Killing Your Progress Megan's Intermittent Fasting LIVE Workshop:  https://www.fitactortravels.com/   Love Your Bodd Stuffz   Email LYB: loveyourboddcast@gmail.com   Tweet: @LoveYourBodd   Instagram: @love_your_bodd   Facebook: Love Your Bodd   Find Heather @HeatherBoddy on Snapchat, Twitter &amp; Instagram www.heather-boddy.com/loveyourbodd   GET HELP: Love Your Bodd is a proud supporter of the Born This Way Foundation - check out their resources page to get help for whatever issue you might be facing -  https://bornthisway.foundation/get-help-now/   Wanna become a Pop Pilates Instructor?

75 - Megan Y: Common Costly Lifestyle Change Mistakes 

Welcome back, Lovers!  In today's episode of Love Your Bodd you are going to hear from a body positive personal trainer named Jenna! She's been a personal trainer for 11 years but it hasn't always been so "body positive."  Jenna has a unique story of gaining weight to improve her health - both mentally and physically. As a personal trainer, she felt she needed to maintain a certain look: flat stomach, no body fat, size zero. Luckily, her discovery of Body Positivity opened up her eyes to a whole new world and way of living. She went from a size zero, miserable, living off supplements with no energy to a size 14/16, intuitively eating and moving, improved energy, and happily/healthily enjoying life.  Let's listen to and explore her story together.  Here is a call to action to all fitness professionals: WHERE are my true Body Positive fitness pros at?! Give Heather and Jenna a shout out so they can add you to their arsenal of warriors promoting body positivity in the fitness industry. Moving because you love it, not as punishment. Taking the shame out of gym setting. Taking the need to track every single thing out of the equation. WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU! The organization F.I.T.4ALL (previous love your bodd guest) certainly stands for this. As does another previous Love Your Bodd guest, Shanna Tyler. Now that I'm thinking about it, many previous LYB guests are. Such as Megan Yelaney and Sam Darby! But we need more and we need to be connected!! Jenna and I need a network of Body Positive connections we can send people to all over the world!    Find Jenna Instagram: @bodypositivefitness_ @bopomove Website: www.bodypositivefitness.ca   Referenced in this Episode: Whitney Way Thore My Big Fat Fabulous Life  Things No One Will Tell Fat Girls by Jess Baker  Health At Every Size by Linda Bacon  Body Positive Power by Megan Crabbe (@bodyposipanda)     Love Your Bodd Stuffz   Email LYB: loveyourboddcast@gmail.com   Tweet: @LoveYourBodd   Instagram: @love_your_bodd   Facebook: Love Your Bodd   Find Heather @HeatherBoddy on Snapchat, Twitter &amp; Instagram www.heather-boddy.com/loveyourbodd   GET HELP: Love Your Bodd is a proud supporter of the Born This Way Foundation - check out their resources page to get help for whatever issue you might be facing -  https://bornthisway.foundation/get-help-now/   Wanna become a Pop Pilates Instructor?
