The Body Collective is here to change the conversation about weight — to take everything we've learned about shame, unlearn it, and transform it into a source of power. Join hosts Katie Sturino, Hunter McGrady, Ashley Longshore, and Tracy Moore for a series of hilarious and informative conversations about everything from weight-loss medications to dating while plus-sized. With the help of some friends and expert guests, we’ll be creating a judgment-free zone to ask the tough questions and have the hard conversations so we can listen to our bodies, advocate for ourselves, and – ultimately – feel more comfortable in our skin.

TRAILER

Welcome to The Body Collective (official trailer)

Welcome to the Body Collective. We’re on a mission to change the way we talk about weight. In this series, we're chatting with friends and experts to help us navigate the hard conversations so we can listen to our bodies, advocate for ourselves, and feel more comfortable in our skin. With the use of new weight-loss medications on the rise, people seem to be talking about weight more than ever — but how do we do so in a way that feels healthy, empowering, and informed?

Each week, she has funny, touching, personal conversations with iconic older women who are brimming with the kind of unapologetic attitude and wisdom that only comes with age. Julia sits at the feet of some extraordinary teachers this season, and of course her 90-year-old mom, Judith. Tune in to laugh, cry, and get wise. All Hail Old Women!

COMEDY
…Is this it? That’s the question our host Reshma Saujani asks herself daily. She’s the founder of two successful nonprofits, she’s married to a great guy, and she’s raising two beautiful children. She’s gotten everything she’s ever wanted, so why does she feel so unsatisfied? Is this a woman’s version of a midlife crisis? She’s determined to figure it out, and with the strength of her group chat behind her, she’s calling in reinforcements. From Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, to Emily Oster and Cheryl Strayed, to experts, friends, authors and more, Reshma’s going to help us all figure out how we stop trying to just get through this time of life… and actually start living it.

Lupita Nyong’o knows what home feels like. But where exactly is it? In Mexico, where she was born? Kenya, where she grew up? Or the States, where she’s spent the past 20 years?

It's these stories – wild and messy, intimate and joyous – that she wants to hear. Welcome to Mind Your Own, a storytelling podcast navigating what it means to belong, all from the African perspective. Join Lupita as she shares tales of her own and dives into the lives of real people finding their way in new worlds of every kind.

Good So Far

I am liking this show so far. I appreciate that there are guests with clinical expertise in the mix. I hope there will be some discussion of anorexia since this is often ignored when discussing body positivity or is seen as the only thing that counts as an “eating disorder.“
Giving this a real chance bc I love the hosts

I really love Ashley Longshore and it’s honestly why I’m here. I think these conversations really need to be had and I look forward to the hosts diving even deeper into these topics. I don’t love that it’s WW but I’m willing to hope that this means WW is also evolving. Staying in there to see where this goes.
WeightWatchers Podcast

Silly little question

It doesn’t matter how feel good this podcast may postulate itself to be, I find it rather insidious that WW is creating a body inclusive, acceptance oriented podcast and products following their bankruptcy, after decades of conning insecure people from their money and dignity with their awful weight loss tactics and methodology. Just remember decades ago, where a Weight Watchers meeting would label you a ‘pig’ for failing to lose weight or gain weight from the previous week. Now they want to claim to be a body positive movement and corporation? Come on, you’re literally named “weight watchers”… as in an active promotion of monitoring one’s weight and body.
