Hello world and welcome to a continuation of last week's episode on body image. On today's episode, I discuss the body positivity movement and the many flaws I see within it. Everything from putting too much focus on how bodies look, to food and fitness influencers, to making teenage girls the leaders of the movement. This is a very nuanced subject and I definitely don't have the best perspective, but I hope that what I say at least makes you think a little. xoxo Alyssa
