I’m joined by Louise Green, personal trainer, author and creator of the Size Inclusive Training Academy. We’re talking about what we think about the new year/new you messaging and new year’s resolutions, how to know when you’re ready to set fitness goals, how to set those goals in a weight neutral way, and how she feels about the messaging around fitness and perimenopause.

I’m joined by Abbie Attwood (she/her), an anti-diet, weight-inclusive nutritionist with a masters in clinical nutrition. We’re talking about Abbie’s experience with OCD and an eating disorder, why there is an overlap between these and what helped her most during recovery. We also talk about how to find your identity if it changes because you’re no longer obsessively dieting or exercising.
