Mindful Strength

Joy Dorsey: Recovery Coach


Listen Later

This episode is the first in a series we are producing on "health," challenging cultural ideas, perceptions and norms on a range of topics including body image, diet, fat phobia and accessibility

"... it is counter intuitive to a person's well-being to be pursuing weight loss ..." - Joy Dorsey

Joy Dorsey is a mother, wife, Recovery Coach, yoga/movement instructor and studio owner based in Brantford, Ontario, Canada. Being a long time friend of Kathryn's, this conversation gets personal as Joy shares details of her own life's journey, what is means to be a recovery coach and why she won't work with weight loss goals. The two swap stories of continued awakening to the truth about their own perceptions and biases of health and body, the profound impact of our learned and felt experiences, and talk teaching movements that work for every body. So much is revealed in peeling back the layers of our cultural conditioning: what we associate with external perceptions of a body or a person as it relates to "health," sexualization of the female form, media and industry, dieting, and more.

These subjects are vast and deep, please tune in over the coming weeks as we continue to dig in and explore with our inspiring line-up of guests!
