KICPod

Bang ya belly, live ya life!!! Katma is a NZ-based content creator. We absolutely LOVE the content she posts about body confidence and have been wanting to have her on the podcast FOREVER so we were so excited to finally make it happen.
Katma joined Laura to chat about her relationship with her body growing up, dieting from a young age, how she has built the confidence she has in herself, the rise of #skinnytok and the pressure to make ourselves smaller, and lots more.
We loved this chat and we hope you do too.

It’s the middle of the year so we thought we’d check in on the goals we set ourselves at the start of the year! We're starting with Laura this week, and next week it's Steph's turn.
This year we set goals according to the 3B’s framework: Betterment, Belonging & Becoming. In this episode, Laura reflects on the progress she’s made on the goals she set at the start of the year and the changes she wants to make before the year ends.
WE MENTIONED

Hiiii! It’s time for another WWYD episode! This week your questions are both food and body-image related.
QUESTION #1: I'm healthy and fit, but I’ve had cellulite on the back of my legs for as long as I can remember. I’m headed on a beach holiday and I’m feeling self-conscious about it. I really want to enjoy my body in a bikini, but it makes me anxious. How would you navigate this?
QUESTION #2: My coworkers frequently make comments about what I’m eating or how my body looks. I’ve tried telling them it makes me uncomfortable but the comments and questions still continue. How would you approach this in a respectful but firm way?

In this episode, Amanda speaks about conceiving, finding the right OB, when to start looking for an OB, the difference between giving birth in public and private hospitals in Australia, the rise of free births, and more!
