Show Notes
Our guest this week is Kelsey Ellis a body-positive fitness trainer who joins us to talk about movement outside of diet culture. Kelsey was a personal trainer who started her career in mainstream diet culture and weight loss focussed fitness, but she had a wake-up call that made her realise she was so deeply obsessed with body goals and counting calories and it was not only not serving her clients but it was damaging her own relationships and her ability to enjoy her life fully.
Our bodies love to move and Kelsey is on a mission to help people untangle body size from movement and find things they truly enjoy without guilt or shame.
We loved talking to Kesley, we’ve both been big fans of her for a long time and this episode is our first full episode about fitness and moving our bodies for joy, not punishment.
