STARGIRL 2.0 is here! Introducing: The Body Series.

Embodiment has always been a central theme of STARGIRL, and we tackle it head on in The Body Series, a Patreon exclusive. In this sequence of conversations, I chat with writers and artists, fitness professionals, athletes/dancers/yogis, etc. whose work centers on the body.

Our first guest is writer Jordan Castro—we discuss his recent Harper’s essay on weightlifting, how exercise changed our relationships to the world, why certain literary/culture scenes dismiss fitness as anti-intellectual, and why lifting need not be politicized.
