Level Up With Sharelle and Dani

Show Notes

In today's episode, we discuss the resurgence of the skinny ideal in contemporary culture and explore its implications for women’s health and the fitness industry.

We unpack the unhealthy behaviours associated with this trend, the role of celebrities and media in shaping body image perceptions, and the misuse of weight loss drugs like Ozempic.

The discussion highlights the importance of informed choices and the need for a balanced, realistic perspective on body image, health, and societal pressures.
