Can you love yourself and still want to change your body?
When I asked Dr. Marcia that question, she challenged me with a better one:
✨ Am I creating more conflict within myself?
✨ Am I choosing change from pain or from purpose?
Because the energy fueling the intention matters.
There’s nothing wrong with wanting to get stronger, lose weight, get surgery, or make a change. But if the goal is rooted in self-hatred, no amount of change will create lasting peace.
When change comes from self-love, growth feels empowering. When it comes from shame, it often creates more suffering. Before you ask what you want to change, ask yourself why.
