Summary
Get ready to meet Bethany Robinson! She's incredibly relatable and refreshingly honest. In this episode, Beth joins us for a raw conversation about body image, eating disorders, internet trolls, and defining what it truly means to be healthy . From the moment she went viral for doing pull-ups in a larger body to navigating pregnancy, relapse, and her lifelong, non-linear relationship with food, we appreciate her willingness to share a conversation that most people shy away from. Beth is a top-tier athlete, fitness coach, and fervent champion for women's sports. She's also authentic about her struggles, actively working through personal challenges to avoid defaulting to controlling behaviors like restricting food. Beth uses her platform to amplify underrepresented athletes, challenge injustices, and push boundaries, all with the goal of increasing the visibility and value of strong women in sport. Join us for a discussion that tackles the harmful myth that "skinny equals healthy" and explores why true wellness isn't always reflected by weight loss. We'll delve into how genuine strength and resilience often deviate dramatically from the images and narratives presented on social media.
