Competitor vs. contemporary is the reframe we're talking about today on the pod with the whole team at Holisticism! It's a triggering topic, and we've all been there where we're not sure if we should call someone in, call them out, have a tough conversation with them, or straight up invoice them for plagiarizing our work! There's no right answer, and we're here to discuss all perspectives without ignoring the historical and structural systems of oppression that are at play. The systems of white supremacy and patriarchy continue to create false narratives around scarcity, urgency, and competition while stealing from marginalized people, and these all must be considered as part of the conversation when talking about competition. Join us as we discuss and let us know your thoughts on the power of reframing your frenemies as collaborators.We'd love to hear from you!

New year, new diet? No, thank you. At Holisticism we're all for goal and intention setting, but so often capitalism and pop-culture aim to convince us that being healthy has a very specific look that frankly, we feel is just BS. Today we're sitting down with Helen Phelen (@helenvphelan) a body neutrality pilates and movement instructor, to shine some light on the darker sides of the diet and goal-setting discourse that is spamming our inbox at this time of the year. Michelle and Helen discuss their shared backgrounds growing up as dancers and their experiences with disordered eating habits, as well as the toxic and insidious belief in society that equates thinness with health. Helen Phelan is a pilates and movement instructor who believes that body neutral, high sensation, breath centric, muscle quivering movement strengthens the body, enhances intuition, and cultivates self-compassion. Helen Phelan Studio delivers all the meditative, vitalizing, and restorative physicality you need without any of the body shaming of the traditional fitness experience. You can also find her @helenvphelen for more inspiration on fine-tuning your intuitive exercise habits and learning to love and appreciate your body and its needs.We'd love to hear from you!
