Yellow Chair Collective: The Podcast

Asian Women are often subjected to not just body expectations from their families, but also from their respective cultural backgrounds. This week, we invite our YCC Asian Women & Femme Body Image group facilitators Angela Nguyen, MSW and Catherine Vu, LMFT, to share their personal stories of their body acceptance journeys. We talk about growing up with family members who comment on your weight, and living in communities with clashing body ideals. Angela & Catherine also share helpful tips about how we can reframe our thoughts, so we can begin seeing and accepting our bodies, free from societal expectations and judgment.
