Today I chat with Lauren Leavell, a body inclusive fitness coach in Philadelphia. She talks about her own journey and the moment she wondered if she could be a fitness coach and personal trainer in the body she had... (then she just... did it). Now she intentionally creates safe fitness environments for others.  Listen to our convo!
