Finding Healing and Freedom From Body Objectification, with Kirsten Schmidt, Part 1
In the first of this two-part series, host Chrissy Kirkman teams up with certified health and nutrition coach, Kirsten Schmidt. In this first part, they’re on a journey to unmask the impact of body objectification in today’s culture.
Kirsten discusses the potential dangers of elevating the concept of “being healthy” to an idol, emphasizing how this mindset can lead to unhealthy comparisons and pressures. She helps us understand how feelings of shame can profoundly destroy our ability to perceive our bodies as unique gifts deserving of respect and care. Join Chrissy and Kirsten as they dive deep into these thought-provoking ideas and thoughtfully guide you toward Jesus and a more balanced and compassionate approach to viewing your body and overall well-being.
