" Nobody should ever make you feel like you are not good enough to be somewhere. I realized I had been creating a safe space for me... but we all have different visions of what a safe space is."

Pilates Instructor and Physical Therapist, Jessica Valant, is here to talk about accessibility and shifting trends in the fitness and wellness industries.

Jessica shares candidly about her lived experience in the Pilates Industry, the progress that has been made to be inclusive, and what still needs to be done so that everyone is truly welcomed. We also chat through the impact of capitalism on fitness, the role of social media, and the need for genuine human connection in fostering body positivity and healing.

Some days it feels like progress is made and other days it feels like we're moving backward but this chat will help put all of that into context as it comes to our bodies. Thanks for being here with an open mind!
