Megan Dowd is a virtual pilates coach for the woman who is ready to take care of business. I love Megan's approach because she doesn't waste time focussing on getting the "perfect" body, or weight loss for the sake of getting thin. She places a huge emphasis on body awareness, movement that feels amazing, body acceptance (no matter what body you're in!) and breathing as a way to open up space in your body & brain.

We’re back with another solo episode this week talking about a topic that I’m all jazzed up about right now: Exposure. Exposure can be looked at in two ways. First, looking at what we need to expose ourselves to in order to continue growing and healing (AKA facing our fears around food and our bodies). And second, looking at what we may be unintentionally exposing ourselves to that is holding us back in recovery.

63. Exposure: one of our big recovery tools

In this episode, I'm sharing how I've  been feeling, and how I've been supporting myself through all the change that has already begun. 

In this episode we talk about how self care often has to shift, and it's OK that it looks different than it once might've. We talk about the changing body, and learning to be OK with that, the things that have been helpful so far through this process, and what you can expect going forward with this podcast + in working with me in a coaching capacity.

59. We're baAAaaAck. And we're pregnant.

This episode is a loooooong time coming, and I couldn’t be more stoked to share it with you all. Kelsey Miller is a writer, author, editor and speaker based in BK, New York. She’s the founder of the Anti-Diet Project, author of the book Big Girl, and the forthcoming I'll Be There For You (which is now available for pre-order!), and an all-around staple in the world of body acceptance, Intuitive Eating, and non-diet living.

In this week's episode I got to sit down with Minerva Siegel, AKA Spooky Fat Babe. Minerva is a plus size model, poet & writer who's been published both in print and online internationally. 
We discuss her relationship with food and her body, and how it has evolved to current day. We discuss her lens on self care, and how for her a large part of self care is shadow work. We talk about how her disabilities played a role in her being able to make peace with her body. And SO. MUCH. MORE. JUICY. STUFF.

Not Plant Based was founded by Laura Dennison and is co-authored by Eve Simmons, both of whom have suffered with eating disorders. They are telling our stories to help others who have also suffered, or are continuing to, with troubled eating. They’re re-discovering happiness and contentment through exercise and by eating the food that they love (namely pasta, meat, potatoes, melted cheese and Kit Kats) in hope that you will too.
