Actress Candace Cameron Bure recently opened up about her difficult past with body image during her own podcast. At 49, she tearfully discussed how she used to treat her body unkindly and the revelation that changed her perspective.
Candace described an impactful experience where she felt as though her body spoke back to her, questioning why it was being treated so harshly despite carrying her through life. This realisation was significant and led to a kinder relationship with herself.
Her poignant share was not just personal; it resonated deeply with listeners, including her podcast’s co-hosts. They, along with numerous fans, offered their support and appreciation for her bravery in addressing such a relatable issue publicly.
