Boseovski Contributes to Healthy UNCG Initiative

On February 28, developmental faculty member Dr. Janet Boseovski, along with Dr. Ashleigh Gallagher, presented a Women’s Table Talk to faculty, students and staff as part of the Healthy UNCG initiative. This initiative provides the UNCG community with information, programs, and service to promote a better quality of life. Drs. Boseovski and Gallagher co-wrote the book Beyond Body Positive as a science-based guide for moms to harness the mother-daughter relationship to foster a healthy body image and foundational wellness behaviors in their daughters. But, the tenets of the book are helpful to promote a healthy body image in people beyond the ages of 3-10. This Women’s Table Talk was the first of a two-session book club featuring discussions about strategies from the book to foster healthy body image and wellness behaviors in girls and women. Nice work!
