Your body was never the problem.

This landmark book by activist and poet Sonya Renee Taylor makes the case that body shame isn't a personal flaw—it's a social and political tool used to control us. Radical self-love is the antidote, and this fully updated second edition gives you both the understanding and the practice to build it.

What's inside:
  • A clear distinction between radical self-love, body positivity, and self-esteem—and why the difference matters
  • The roots of body shame: how media, capitalism, and systems of oppression manufacture self-hatred across race, size, gender, disability, and more
  • A four-pillar practice framework for moving from shame into sustained self-love
  • “Unapologetic agreements”—tools for extending radical self-love into relationships and communities
  • New in the second edition: expanded “freedom frameworks” for fighting systemic body terrorism at organizational and societal levels

Who this is for: Anyone who has ever felt their body was “too much” or “not enough”—and especially readers who feel unseen in mainstream wellness conversations, including fat, disabled, Black, and queer communities.

What changes: Readers consistently describe this book as the moment shame stopped feeling like their fault. It's the rare self-love book that is also a social justice framework.

If you're ready to stop apologizing for the body you're in, this is your next read.
