We decide to go on a social media break for a month! Following a mostly good but maybe kind of problematic body image episode recording that is now hidden in our patreon (go subscribe to listen!) we are re-evaluating our relationship with social media and taking a break from it for the month of April. Check in next month to see how well we did/if we now have rock-solid body confidence. Also, go join our Fuck It Diet Book Club over on the Bipolar Bicoastal Discord!
