In this episode, we explore the hidden impact of our own insecurities on our children. Kids are like little sponges, absorbing not just what we intentionally teach but also what we subconsciously express. How can our attitudes about body image, appearance, and self-criticism shape their confidence and world view? We reflect on the importance of being mindful of how we talk about ourselves around our kids, and the need to delay passing on insecurities until they have the tools to navigate these emotions healthily.

• The power of parents’ words and actions on children’s self-image.
• How insecurities about body and appearance can be passed on.
• The role of social media and societal pressures in amplifying body insecurities.
• Practical strategies for using self-awareness to model healthy behaviours for children.
• The importance of promoting a positive attitude toward body image and physical health.
• A reminder: training for a healthier body is not just for you—it's also for your family.

While we can’t protect our kids from all of life’s challenges, we can control how we speak about ourselves around them. Modeling healthy self-talk and body positivity will give children the tools to navigate body image issues as they grow.
