In this episode I talk with Bethany C. Meyers about their journey from fitness instructor struggling with their body image and disordered eating to CEO and founder of the be.come project, a modern fitness app focused on inclusivity and joyful movement.
We got into so many compelling topics, including:
- What body neutrality is and how it can help you get peace with your body
- How terrifying it can be to throw out your scale
- Ways to stop looking at exercise as punishment and instead use it as a way to heal and a source of pleasure
- How and why the wellness industry needs to consider the experience of BIPOC and other underrepresented communities
- The relationship between gender identity, body dysmorphia and body image
- The fact that we’re all on a journey and even the “experts” are still growing and learning and don’t have it all figured out
Bethany shared their story with so much generosity, candor and vulnerability. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did!
