I mention Louise on the regular in sessions. #Repost @louisegreen_bigfitgirl with @get_repost ・・・ I will fight till the end for representation of everyday women, especially in health, welllness and fitness advertising and media. . WHY? . Because there’s a direct correlation between invisibility and disengagement. When you can’t see yourself in the media message it’s an unspoken message that, really, you’re not invited. . In fitnes advertising and media, they largely use images that will push on your pain points; youthful, ripped, tanned but mostly Caucasian, enticing you to the service / product / culture BUT only to alter yourself to be more acceptable by our societies standards. . After thousands of conversations with women about their relationships with their bodies and fitness, here’s what I know for sure. . The outcome of invisibility: . ✅ Less engagement ✅ Less Wellness for Women ✅ Women stuck in diet cycles, trying to conform ✅ Less confidence for women ✅ Fear of the Unknown (when you can’t see any likeness to yourself demonstrating health and fitness success. ✅ Oppression . Invisibility and lack of size, age, ethnic visibility GREATLY impacts the lives and health of women. I’m only backing brands who want to step up, include and care about women’s health from a larger spectrum. Brands who want to be inclusive to the millions of woman who remain invisible. . Only those are TRUE brands with impact. . . @lolagetts @nike @nikewomen @hokaoneone @_sportcheck.ca @universalstandard @societynine @katgordon @3percentconf

Cats don’t care about double chins or unflattering photos. They care about being seen and loved in the form of sitting awkwardly on you and getting pets on pets on pets from you. Be the cat.

I let my interns write about their experience if they want and Kendra wrote about hers. SO MUCH GRATITUDE to clients who let her sit in. Love y’all. Link in bio.

When I was this age, I hated my body. I mentioned this photo in my last blog post and then forgot to include it (classic Ames). If you haven’t read it, the link is in my bio.
