Dr. Lindsay Kite joins Dana and Cristina to dig deep into self-objectification and body image, how to build body image resilience in the face of body image disruptions, and when well-meaning body compliments do more harm than good. *We’re re-sharing this episode from summer 2021, because we found it to be so incredibly helpful with all the body image disruptions that so many people experience in the summer months!*
We talk about how beauty companies play into this self-objectification with their marketing, even if they are well-meaning. Dr. Lindsay Kite is co-author of the book More Than a Body: Your Body is an Instrument, not an Ornament and co-director of the nonprofit Beauty Redefined, alongside her identical twin sister Lexie Kite.
