This week I sit down with Katy Bowman and Dr. Diana Hill as they shatter conventional exercise wisdom and unveil the psychological forces keeping you from moving your body. This eye-opening conversation reveals how our society's toxic relationship with fitness sabotages our wellbeing, while offering a revolutionary approach to movement that prioritizes joy over aesthetics. Learn why community support is the secret ingredient missing from most fitness journeys, discover how to identify your unique movement motivations, and walk away with practical strategies to transform physical activity from a dreaded chore into a sustainable, fulfilling practice that nourishes both body and mind.
