It’s easy to believe that losing weight is what will bring us true joy and satisfaction because that’s what the world tells us.

From media and ads to clothing stores and influencers, we’re told that happiness comes when we’re thinner. That life will be better once we fit into our pre-pregnancy jeans or look like that fitness influencer on Instagram.
