This isn’t a feel-good chat about “body positivity.” It’s a mirror. A match. And a wake-up call.
In this episode, Sari sits down with Paul Fishman to dismantle the lie that your worth depends on your waistline—or that “success” means shrinking yourself to fit someone else’s mold. Together, they burn through the illusion that control, validation, and the number on the scale will ever make you feel enough.
If you’ve ever looked in the mirror and felt like an imposter in your own body—or kept clothes for a version of you that doesn’t exist anymore—this conversation will shake something loose. It’s time to stop chasing skinny, stop apologizing, and start living from the inside out. The revolution isn’t your wardrobe. It’s you.
