Welcome to The Positively Healthy Mom Podcast! I'm Laura Ollinger, and today, I'm thrilled to introduce you to Rachel Lavin, a health coach and author who is passionate about helping people love themselves from the inside out. In this heartfelt conversation, Rachel shares her journey and expertise on body image, self-love, and the importance of positive self-talk.
Rachel has been in the fitness and wellness industry for over 20 years. Starting as a group exercise instructor and evolving into a personal trainer and health coach, she brings a wealth of knowledge and personal experience. In this episode, Rachel opens up about her own struggles with body image and how she transformed her relationship with her body. Her book, The Donut Diaries, chronicles this journey and offers a candid, relatable look at overcoming self-doubt and embracing self-love.
As moms, we face unique challenges related to body image and self-esteem, which we often pass on to our children, both boys and girls. Rachel emphasizes the importance of having open conversations with our kids about body image and self-worth, teaching them to love themselves at any size. She also highlights the significance of changing our internal dialogue from negative to positive, a lesson she shares with her clients.
Rachel's coaching approach is centered on meeting women where they are, understanding the deep-rooted programming that affects our self-perception, and guiding them towards a healthier, more loving relationship with their bodies. She shares practical tips and strategies for fostering positive body image and self-love, encouraging moms to model these behaviors for their children.
In this episode, Rachel and I discuss the societal pressures we face, especially during significant events like high school reunions, and how we can shift our mindset to focus on our own well-being rather than external validation. Rachel's insights are not only empowering but also actionable, providing a roadmap for moms to boost their own resilience and that of their families.
Join us in this enlightening conversation to learn how to cultivate self-love, break free from negative self-talk, and build a positive body image for yourself and your children. Rachel's wisdom and warmth will inspire you to embrace a healthier, happier you.
