S1EP5 - Mindful & Choiceful

In this reflective episode of Weight Bearing Bodies, I share insights from my recent time away exploring travel, life shifts, and the positive changes that continue to unfold on this journey. We dive into the realities of accessing medication, including the rising costs of Mounjaro, and what that means for those navigating treatment. At the heart of the conversation is how GLP-1 medication has given me the space to be truly mindful and choiceful, not just with food, but in everyday life. I also answer some of the questions that have been been sent to me over the past while.

S1EP4 - Will I Fit?

This week’s episode explores how everyday activities like grabbing dinner with friends or visiting a local restaurant can feel anything but simple for people in weight-bearing bodies. What might seem like a casual social event to some can bring up feelings of anxiety, exclusion, or discomfort for others. We take a closer look at how something as routine as eating out can highlight deeper issues of accessibility, accommodation, and self-worth. We also dive into the challenges around travel, from plane seats to hotel stays and how what should be exciting experiences often become stressful or even avoided altogether. These aren’t just inconveniences; they can impact quality of life, relationships, and personal freedom. So tune in to today’s episode of Weight Bearing Bodies, where we unpack these hidden barriers and open up the conversation around making space physically and emotionally for everyone to belong.
