Body Kindness

Bernie Salazar, former NBC Biggest Loser “winner” and frequent guest for my series Learn and Grow, joins me to rant on the Nike Fat Mannequin debacle. We love the mannequin and want to see more size diversity in fitness culture. We strongly reject the fat phobia expressed by some people with large platforms, especially the harmful article in the Telegraph. Plus, we revisit my interview with “fan favorite” Ragen Chastain. The Guinness World Record holder for heaviest female marathoner joins me in a conversation in supporting more athletes at every size and creating clothes and equipment that work with their bodies.
