Welcome to Soul of a LeadHer for she who lives by the soul! In this episode, our guest Samantha Barash embarks on a powerful conversation about rebuilding trust with our bodies. In this enriching dialogue, we explore the impact of societal norms and cultural influences on our perceptions of food, beauty, and health. We'll delve into the inspiring space of "The Practice Collective," a nurturing environment for wellness professionals, and learn about Samantha's journey as an intuitive eating coach. Together, we challenge oppressive diet culture and Eurocentric beauty standards, promoting an authentic connection with our bodies and ancestral heritage through food.

Join us as we turn curiosity into compassion, cultivate community, and celebrate the transformative power of self-love and acceptance in leadership and well-being.

Here are some of the key takeaways of this episode:

1. Building Trust with Your Body: Understanding the importance of listening to and respecting your body's needs, and rebuilding that trust through regular feeding, self-kindness, and curiosity.

2. Cultural and Ancestral Connection: Discovering the power of food in healing and community building, while celebrating cultural heritage and family traditions.

3. Challenging Societal Norms: Embracing intuitive eating by unlearning societal diet messages and fostering a healthy, compassionate relationship with food and body image.
