I'm reminded by yesterday's Wellbeing Think Tank Summit how important in-person gatherings are.

They build real connection and promote presence. They are ideal for learning and connecting disparate ideas and approaches.

The keynote speaker Paul J. Zak, a renowned neuroscience researcher, spoke on the practices and behaviors that lead to true happiness.

Purpose and connection are among those keys, and this conference helped reinforce the former and expand the latter.

Great job Chase Sterling and the whole team.

See this month's ACE Certified for an interview I gave on the obesity management medications.

It's a complex, and potentially harmful, thing mixing medications for weight loss with fitness culture. But at the same time they could launch millions of people on the path of movement for health and happiness.

It's very much about how approach this.

I address these thoughts and more in this interview. And you can get ACE CE credit too!

There's a nice series of no-cost webinars at for weight stigma awareness week.

Today I'm attending

The Injustice of Anti-fatness: A Diagnosis
Weight Stigma In Children and Adolescents

The fitness industry has played a role in how we view fatness and people with obesity, and there seems to be a serious animus toward them... and fat itself.

The result is sizeism and healthism, which harms people and harms the industry.

We absolutely can teach movement without demonizing fatness, and will need to shift our attitude if we want to work with people taking the weight loss medications.

Exercise, even without weight loss, is still healthy.

I did a story with this photo. Just some thoughts...

I wonder why we celebrate someone like Denise Austin as a fitness visionary, legend, leader?

If she were African American would she be famous? If she weren't conventionally attractive would we even know her name?

What if she weighed 30 or 40 more pounds?

Imagine an unattractive person doing the same videos and tv shows she did. Not going to happen is it?

List out Denise's education and certifications. Not given or listed anywhere.

She now continues objectifying women's bodies well into her 50s, reducing women and their value to how they look.

Selling hotness as 'health'.

Making women feel ashamed for how they look.

Scaring them with unscientific nonsense. Lying to them with guaranteed quick 'fixes' to made up problems with their bodies.

She represents what's wrong with the industry, in my view.
