Welcome back to another enlightening episode of “Unstoppable Overcomers.” Today, host Kimberly Genovese and Dorothy O’Dell sit down with Vicki Parker, a relationship builder and advocate for empowering female leaders. In this compelling episode, Vicki delves deep into her personal experiences and professional insights on body image issues within the dance world, sharing a moving story from her time at Boston Conservatory.

We explore the societal pressures of unrealistic beauty standards and their harmful impact on everyone, not just dancers but everyone. Vicki opens up about her struggles with binge eating and the generational behaviours that influenced her. We also highlight the power of community, visibility, and authenticity in overcoming these challenges.

Moreover, Vicki and Kimberly discuss their collaborative contributions to the impactful book, “Changing Bringing New Words to Your Body Conversation,” revealing the importance of rewriting negative narratives around body image. As we navigate through these conversations, both hosts and guests emphasize the importance of being seen, heard, and known, advocating for a supportive network and internal healing.

So, grab your headphones and join us for an episode filled with heartfelt stories, invaluable insights, and a celebration of overcoming adversities together. And don’t forget to stay hydrated—Vicki has some great tips for that, too!

After having a retired Air Force veteran on her show Unstoppable Overcomers on Jan. 31, 22, and learning of the massive suicide and divorce rate among our veteran and first responder community, she knew she had to step up and help these communities. Since then, she has joined several veteran organizations to help ensure that they get the help they need.
