In this episode of Embracing the Gray, hosts Vic and Kels engage in an eye-opening conversation with Carrie B., a participant in the Rediscover You Free Program. Carrie opens up about her experience at the gym, recounting a troubling encounter with a personal trainer who, without inquiring about her health goals and aspirations, handed her a 'low fat, fat-burning' meal plan.

The discussion takes a poignant turn as Carrie vulnerably shares her thoughts on whether the trainer's approach would have been different if she occupied a smaller body—a reflection on the harsh reality of weight stigma. Together, we explore the societal pressures individuals face, especially during significant life events like an engagement or wedding, drawing attention to Carrie's personal journey.

The episode concludes with a powerful exploration of radical self-acceptance. Contrary to the misconception of 'letting go,' the hosts and Carrie delve into the notion that embracing radical self-acceptance is about acknowledging and showing up as your authentic self. Join us for an insightful conversation that challenges norms and encourages embracing the complexities of life.
