The Body Collective

The Body Collective

The Body Collective is here to change the conversation about weight — to take everything we've learned about shame, unlearn it, and transform it into a source of power. Join hosts Katie Sturino, Hunter McGrady, Ashley Longshore, and Tracy Moore for a series of hilarious and informative conversations about everything from weight-loss medications to dating while plus-sized. With the help of some friends and expert guests, we’ll be creating a judgment-free zone to ask the tough questions and have the hard conversations so we can listen to our bodies, advocate for ourselves, and – ultimately – feel more comfortable in our skin.
