123: Overcoming Body Image Issues + Finding Body Confidence with Rachael Gilbert
We all struggle with body image issues, no matter what body type we have. Even as Christian women who know God’s promises and manage our thoughts we can struggle with a negative body image and get caught in the enemy’s lies about how our looks define our identity and our worth.
- how to step into more awareness and acceptance about our bodies
- how to stop the shame and blame cycles associated with unhappy body image
- practical ways to stop the lies we tell ourselves about our body image
If you’re tired of being in the diet cycle, have a negative body image or feel unworthy or unhappy because of your body image, today’s podcast episode offers great tips for renewing your thoughts about your body and encourages you that you’re not alone in these issues of body confidence.

Get Additional Help with Body Image Issues from an Online Christian Counselor
We talk about some very sensitive and potentially triggering topics in this episode on body image issues, and I wanted to let you know about a Christian counseling resource if you need help working through trauma related to body image issues or if you need to process this topic further.
There is a time and a place for deep healing with a Christian counselor, and if that’s something you’re considering, I recommend Faithful Counseling, online Christian counseling service. They offer virtual Christian counseling sessions via video or via phone, and they are very reasonably priced. Faithful Counseling will match you up with a counselor that is a good fit for you and the healing you need.
(In full disclosure, I am an affiliate for Faithful Counseling and I receive a small commission should you choose to work with one of their counselors.)
