#74 - When Fitness Isn't About Weight, With Allison Hanks

37 minutes

The lovely Allison Hanks joins me today to tackle a different side of self-love, body acceptance and intuitive eating - finding joy in movement.

Allison is a group fitness instructor in Loveland Colorado who has a passion for de-stigmatizing fitness as a one size fits all, weight centric space. She is a huge advocate for accessibility and inclusivity in health and wellness so that all bodies can experience what it's like to feel healthy and strong.

We chat about:

How her fitness journey started and why she decided to start teaching classes

How to stay motivated with fitness goals

The common assumptions about fitness, and fitness red flags

Body dysmorphia

Coping with bad body image days

What to do if you struggle with motivation and consistency

I LOVE the advice Allison provides in this episode and I know that you will too!
