Research has found that nearly 8 out of 10 women have skipped an important life event like a party, a trip, a reunion because of how they felt about their bodies‼️

And if the invitation includes wearing a bathing suit, 1 in 2 women has turned that down entirely.

Welcome to summer… Pool parties, boat days, company retreats, lakeside picnics, and the bathing suit dread.

The truth is: swimsuits aren’t just exposing our bodies. They are exposing our relationship with our bodies that have been quietly shaped, since puberty, by an industry that profits from your dissatisfaction.

We loathe the dressing room because it forces us to evaluate our bodies the way we imagine others would — from the outside, as an object to be assessed. And the more revealing the garment, the higher the scrutiny.

The Dove Beauty Report found that 2 out of 3 women believe they’re expected to be more physically attractive than their mothers’ generation. 2 in 5 said they’d give up a year of their life for their ideal body. 😢

In this week’s newsletter, I’m sharing 4 things that actually help like the bathing suit fit, the method to shop from home, the reframing, the body neutrality, plus seven of my favorite bathing suits. Comment SUMMER and I’ll send you the link!

Love,
Patricia

She left a 9-year marriage after meeting her soulmate.

Amber Rae’s story is one of the most honest, courageous, and deeply human conversations I’ve had on Matriark.

Amber grew up carrying wounds around love, safety, and belonging that quietly shaped every relationship she built as an adult. Before she could choose herself, she had to deconstruct all of it: the conditioning, the shame, the guilt, the deep-seated belief thatch wasn’t enough as she was. What came out the other side is Loveable — a USA Today bestselling memoir and such an important book written to give permission to live their true lives.

In this interview we cover everything: * How her childhood struggles shaped the way she loved, and why she had to unlearn it all * How she stumbled into becoming an author and built an extraordinary career helping writers find their voice, their story, and their audience (aspiring authors — this one’s for you) *The story behind leaving her 9-year marriage, how it unfolded, and why she has zero regrets * What it really means to be loveable

I had the most wonderful time with her. She is as warm, wise, and wonderfully unfiltered in person as she is in her book.

📍 TONIGHT THURSDAY 5/21— Amber and I are co-hosting an event with , , and at to benefit . Amber will be signing copies of Loveable and sitting down with Pamela Bell for a conversation you won’t want to miss.

I never dreamed about having children. And now that I have two, the one thing I want this Mother’s Day is shockingly simple:

Leave women alone. And stop the mommy wars.

Stay-at-home mothers weaponizing guilt against working mothers. Working mothers dismissing the labor of women who chose home. Mothers of every kind labeling women who deliberately chose not to have children as selfish.

Everyone taking pity reserved for women who wanted children and couldn’t have them. Doubled for the ones who are also single — because apparently the tragedy of not having children can only be surpassed by not having children and not having a partner.

What a waste of the most valuable resource women have: each other.

The mommy wars are a distraction.

Every hour spent litigating who is doing womanhood correctly or fueling the oppression Olympics of who is suffering the most is an hour not spent on the systems that make womanhood difficult in the first place.

The absence of paid leave. The cost of childcare. The motherhood penalty. The medical establishment’s indifference to women’s pain. The disappearing woman’s right to choose.

That’s what we should be fighting about.

All I want this Mother’s Day is for people to leave women alone.

That’s it. That’s the gift.

I wrote about my own experience with motherhood and so@much more in this week’s Matriark newsletter.

COMPARISONITIS. Do you suffer from it? I do. And so do the majority of the female Founders I work with. It’s paralyzing and I needed to do something about it to help my clients and to help myself.

The research is interesting , and women have more adverse reactions than men. The spotlight effect, the upward comparison and how social media impacts us are all making us feel inadequate.

The good news is that there are strategies to combat this condition. I’ve been doing this myself and I can confirm it works!

1. Decide what success looks like for you
2. Fall in love with the doing and not the outcome
3. You aren’t behind anyone. You are ahead of what you used to be.
4.Stop passive scrolling
5. Look behind the painting. Nothing is as it seems.
6. Call someone who knows you and your story

Comment COMPARE and I will send you the link for the newsletter. THERE IS A TON OF INFORMATION THERE. And head to the link in bio or PatriciaAssuiReed.com for more information on my advisory work.

Happy reading! ❤️
