What happens when your body stops feeling like a home — and starts feeling like a project to manage, perfect, or punish?
In this episode of The Strong Pretender, we explore the invisible side of body dysmorphia in high-functioning women, the kind that doesn’t show up in dramatic before-and-after photos or eating disorder headlines.This is about the polished executive who skips meals before meetings. The mom who flinches at compliments. The woman who hides during vacations and fears being seen without filters, lighting, or control.Through real-life scenarios, journal prompts, and somatic reflection, we unpack how body shame embeds itself in our relationships, careers, parenting and most of all, our sense of self.If you’ve ever been praised for looking good while quietly falling apart, this episode is for you.
🔍 Topics include:
• What body dysmorphia looks like beyond eating disorders
• How high-achieving women disconnect from their bodies
• The link between appearance and performance in corporate culture
• Rebuilding body trust through somatic and narrative practices
