Chrissy King—author, creator of The Body Liberation Project, and former fitness and strength coach—joins Remy and Emily to unpack the ties between racism and diet culture, the nuances of self love, and make some TikTok references with Remy (obvi). Chrissy talks about her background, from the comment that led her to start dieting to her experience working with (and then becoming) a trainer. She breaks down the meaning of body liberation and how it differs from body positivity, before unpacking where our beauty standards came from—and the struggle to break out of them. Chrissy tells Remy and Emily about her personal experience facing racism in the wellness community, and they wrap up discussing how to continue this conversation.
