119 | Reframing Your Relationship with Exercise with Lauren Leavell

As you know, here at BBG we believe wellness is so much more than having a fitness routine (or ritual). It’s just one part of the picture. So when we can start to measure our progress by how good we feel instead of a number on the scale, we’re taking our power back with movement. Before we dive full-on with a new fitness program, let’s get clear on what fitness is actually for, the benefits we’re going after, and how to make movement a joyful part of life.

We’re joined by Lauren Leavell, a fitness coach and instructor who focuses on weight neutrality and finding comfort and joy in building a movement practice.

And bonus - Join us for the Reframing the Reset Challenge! It’s free and we’ll be doing it together as a community. Snag your roadmap here → balancedblackgirl.com/reset
