This forum is guided by a paradigm shifting perspective on our bodies through a purpose-oriented framework.

Its about moving past feelings of shame around our bodies, and identifying and committing to what truly matters to us so that we each live full and fulfilled lives.

• Its about sharing our shame so we break the silence and find courage in other empathetic and understanding women.
• Its about  expressing our dreams so we’re drawn and committed to what’s possible and not pulled back by the fear of what’s at stake.
• Its about moving past disgust to a sense of awe towards our bodies and the desire to nurture them so they become the vehicle to a lived life.
• Its about sharing our insights and successes so we may help and inspire others have a meaningful breakthrough on our common journey.

Together we can choose to respond powerfully to external messages rather than let our shame define us. Because secret-keeping and playing safe has never made anyone more secure. It only breeds greater insecurity and limits our ability to achieve anything worthwhile.

What this forum is not:

• A place to champion body love and body acceptance, except as part of the journey towards what truly matters.
• A place to blame parents, caregivers or society for their role in promoting body shame, except to understand its sources and assumed truths.
• A place to promote personal products and services. Any such posts will be removed.
• A substitute for psychological support. The opinions, advice or information expressed in the forums is provided by the user community, and as such is not a substitute for scientific evidence.
• A substitute for in-person coaching. If you would like one on one services, please consider signing up here ().

Since the forum is community driven, we each have an equal responsibility to ensure that it’s a compassionate space where we feel safe to share our stories of shame, of struggles, of dreams and successes, and where we each come together in empathy and understanding to tap into our shared wisdom and unleash our human brilliance.

Rudeness or abusive language directed at other members or the site owner will be removed and the originator will be blocked from subsequent access to the forum.
