There's an extra something hard about weight gain for those of us who used to be Small Girls.

Working on body image doesn't always have to be a big thing. The little things add up!

I used to believe Grief had to be BIG, reserved for death and maybe heartbreak. Grief was a place I didn’t want to go, didn’t believe I could come back from. Now grief is a daily practice. Grief is the emotional experience of acknowledging loss or change, of any size. It is not the same as sadness or depression.

This is how I imagine a world without fatphobia

Winter can be a hard time for body image.

The constant messaging gets to me too. I’m aware that I’m also a coach, also selling a promise of better things.
