28. Practicing Intuitive and Flexible Movement
If you don’t have any aesthetic goals than there is no need for a structure plan that focuses on one form of exercise. If you simply want to engage in exercise just to move your body and feel healthy than intuitive and flexible movement could be perfect for you. It’s about going day by day and giving your body the form of movement it needs for that day. It’s allowing yourself to move intensely some days and slowly other days. Some days your form of movement may be heavy lift or intense cardio session where others may be a slow yoga flow or simply just a walk. Tune into to this episode to learn more about intuitive and flexible movement.

27. Fatphobia in the Fitness space + Health At Any Size
Fatphobia in the fitness space is a direct result of ignorance and lack of education about health. Health goes beyond physical so you can just look at someone and determine their health. Health is defined by the individual. Health can exist in all shapes and sizes. Thinness is not the default to health, happiness, beauty, or worth. Tune in to understand body diversity and health on a deeper level than just physical.
