In a world of diet culture, unrealistic expectations, and unhealthy programming, organizations like The Body Positive are out here resetting the conversation. This week, Lau and Rich have the rare pleasure of talking to Connie Sobczak, Founder & Executive Director of this spectacular organization. They talk about how Connie’s sister’s death, caused in part by an eating disorder, as well as becoming a parent, set Connie on a life-long mission to change people's relationships with their bodies. They also talk tools, mindset obstacles, and so much more. Plus they get into Connie’s book, how Hello Adorn and The Body Positive came to be buddies (hint, it involves a “boob necklace”), and plenty more. Inspiration, learning, and laughs. Our favorite.
