Fantastic article, Ryan. I resonate with a lot here. Especially with the ‘adjacent adjectives’ point. As someone who struggled with my weight during my teens, I wrongly wrapped my identity into the negatives society attached to that body type. It’s been a journey to overcome them ever since. This article will really help anyone going through similar.

It feels good to know that much of the article resonated, Jack. But I'm sorry to hear about your all-too-common struggle with body shaming and all the beliefs that come with it. May all of us reclaim our true, unconditioned self. Appreciate you sharing. 🙏
