Christina, in our Empowerment Studio community , submitted a question that unfolded into this podcast. We talk about the difference between taking up space energetically versus physically, and how being in your body can feel like a completely different challenge than just showing up in a room. A lot of people are waiting to feel confident before they allow themselves to be seen, photographed, or celebrated -- which keeps you stuck. What if not that?? So we talk about how to start seeing yourself differently, how to build from neutrality instead of confidence, and how small moments of noticing can begin to shift your relationship with your body over time. Throughout the episode, we share our own experiences with shrinking, swinging between “too much” and “not enough,” and learning how to find a version of taking up space that actually feels aligned instead of performative. Taking up space isn’t about loving your body all the time. It’s about learning how to stay in it -- and letting that be enough to start. 🤳🏼 Get our FREE selfie guide: https://empowermentphotographer.com/selfie 🔗 Sign up for the #SelfietoSelfLove Challenge: selfietoselflove.com 📸 Follow us on Instagram: @empowermentstudio__ 🌐 Learn more about our boudoir sessions and Empowerment Experience: empowermentphotographer.com 👥 Join our Facebook Group: The Empowerment Studio","meta_description":"In this episode, Rachael (she/her) and I (Kinzie, they/she, hey pals!) are diving into what it actually means to take up space in your body -- especially…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":2222,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/f-ck-confidence-the-empowerment-studio-podcast-7078554/episodes/056-stop-waiting-to-like-your-body-before-you-let-yourself-be-seen/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/f-ck-confidence-the-empowerment-studio-podcast-7078554/056-stop-waiting-to-like-your-body-before-you-let-yourself-be-seen.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
