Have you ever noticed that body image and self-love are generally seen as a ‘women’s issue’? In actual fact, 45% of men in Australia dislike their bodies.

We need to start the conversation about how we can support the men in our lives to love themselves more, have more freedom in how they express themselves and to join the body acceptance movement, and I could think of no better person to speak on the topic than Jake Kneesh.

In this episode, Jake and I chat about:

  • His journey from PT and wannabe fitness influencer to self-love and body acceptance advocate
  • Challenging toxic and ‘traditional’ masculinity and how men online have responded
  • Why we need more men in the body positivity and acceptance space
  • Having body image conversations with men (and why pissing them off is okay!)
  • Exploring fashion outside the gender norms
  • His advice for men who want to embrace themselves and live life on their own terms
