I talk with Leslie Severns about her experience being a birth worker, about aging bodies, and ways we can support pregnant people and their changing bodies. Leslie also talks about her 16 year old daughter who feels confident in her body- so I had to talk to her, too! Madie Calvert is a 16 year old who shares what helps her connect to her body.

In this episode, Sarah Jane chats with the co-owners of Triluna Wellness, a pro-doughnut, non-diet, anti-racist company in Nashville, TN. We chat about both of their journeys to connecting to their bodies and how they created a company that brings communities together. 

Elizabeth mentions Ayurveda, an ancient Indian system of healing. Neither Elizabeth nor I are experts in this field. There are many resources and Ayurvedic experts. I would love to share Melissa Shah (future guest!) @findyourbreath on Instagram as one place to start for more information.

In this episode, I chat with Megan Moss about her experience in a fat body, about purity culture and therapy. Below are a few of the references we spoke about in the episode:

In this first episode, we meet Sarah Jane and why she wanted to start this podcast. She shares about her experience growing up and not feeling "ok" in her body, mostly from the influence of diet culture. She then talks about her experience being diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes and how her eating disorder and her chronic illness interact. 

One thing you can do to be ok with being you: Sarah Jane talks about Intuitive Eating by Elyse Resch and Evelyn Tribole. 

This is a podcast about folks being with their bodies, just as they are! In this podcast, we will chat with folks in eating disorder recovery, fat bodies, disabled bodies, aging bodies, queer bodies, non binary bodies, bodies of color, aging bodies, and so much more! This is for you if you do not feel ok in your body. Through hearing other folks' experiencing in their bodies, I hope you can find some connection, strength and some hope. Enjoy!
