Episode 28: Seeing Herself–How One Listener’s Social Media Presence is A Tool In Her Recovery

Nush’s insta is a beautiful collage of selfies and outfit photos that are for her more than anyone. When she looks at these photos she can see her body as it is, and holding up that mirror has been invaluable to her recovery.
