Building Trust
Becoming a safe space so she feels comfortable coming to you.
Never comment on her body
Not even positive comments about weight loss — it signals that her body is something to be evaluated.
Model healthy behaviour
She is watching how you talk about food, exercise, and your own body. Make it positive.
Keep conversations confidential
If she shares something sensitive, don't immediately tell other family members. Ask what she needs.
Show up consistently
Trust is built over many small moments, not one big conversation. Regular check-ins matter.
Celebrate non-physical qualities
Regularly highlight her strengths, personality, and achievements that have nothing to do with appearance.
