I'm joined by Ashantis Jones, Therapist, Mental Health Coach, NASM Certified Personal Trainer, and Group Fitness Instructor. We are talking about how ADHD, Autism, and anxiety influenced Ashantis' relationship with her body. We're also talking about why it's so important to understand the social determinants of health when we have conversations about health and how we can change our relationship with movement, plus the difference between coaching and therapy.
