This Fat Girl Life is back and we are talking all about self care this season. In this first episode of the season, I am being joined by Shawn Tegtmeier to talk about love.

Whether it be messages from family members, friends, co-workers, or even social media...we have all heard them. Those messages that say we can't do it, we aren't good enough, we don't deserve it. These types of toxic messages do us a disservice. Tonight we will discuss how to get past the toxic messaging and move forward.

In this episode of This Fat Girl Life, I am joined by Nicola Mercer.  We are going to be discussing the importance of finding a healthy balance.  

All too often, we are playing a juggling game.  Between our home life, our work life, our families, and everything else we have going on...it can sometimes seem like we are performing a circus act.  And often times we drop the ball....which for a lot of us gives us a sense of worthlessness....if even just in that moment.  

What if you could find a way to balance everything?  Balance between work and relaxation and food and everything else you have going on?  Well, that's what we will be exploring today.  

So...sit back, grab something to drink, and listen in!
