Hey True Crew! This week, Madi is joined by best selling author and speaker Jess Connolly for a raw and redemptive conversation about body image, body shame, and the deep wounds we carry when it comes to how we see ourselves. Together, Madi and Jess open up about their personal battles with body shame and how to find freedom, healing, and a new identity rooted in truth. Body image isn’t just a physical struggle, it’s a spiritual fight. And the truth is: God didn’t get it wrong when He made you. If you’ve ever stood in front of a mirror and felt disgust, defeat, or deep shame, you are not alone. This episode is for the person who feels stuck in a cycle of comparison, for the one striving to meet impossible standards, and for anyone ready to find freedom from the lies we believe about our bodies.
As always, stay you and stay true!
