Episode 31 - Stephanie Ng from Body Banter - Youth mental health and body image

In this episode, Andrew speaks with Stephanie Ng, the founder of Body Banter, a nonprofit organization that connects and empowers young people to find their voices in conversations about body image and mental health. They discuss how we have come to link the way we look to who we are, how hyper-focusing on physical traits as indicators of health can actually interfere with feeling healthy, why conversations are key to breaking through cultural messages telling us that we need to look a certain way in order to achieve ‘success’ and ‘happiness’, and much more. We hope you enjoy listening to this conversation as much as we enjoyed recording it! Ways to get connected with Stephanie and Body Banter:Instagram: @_themightymunchkin_ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanie-ng-0179a1151Email: steph@bodybanter.comBody Banter Instagram: @bodybanterBody Banter website: www.bodybanter.com
