Achea Redd's Journey to Authentic Self-Worth. From her earliest memories, Achea Redd lived under the microscope of other people's expectations. As a child, she was constantly aware of her body, with family members and friends monitoring her eating habits, instructing her on ideal weight, celebrating when she lost pounds, and expressing concern when she gained. Combined with her natural inclination to please others, this scrutiny created a prison of self-consciousness that would haunt her for decades.

Achea Redd talks with Spectrum News 1 about her mental health struggles and how they affected her physically.
