SkinnyTok is obviously horrific and not something we want to promote and encourage. There has been a lot of pushback (thankfully) from trainers and influencers against the SkinnyTok content... but are we really doing all we can? And might we still be contributing to the culture that allows SkinnyTok to go forth and prosper? Probs. Let's talk about weight bias.

Guys I was starstruck on this podcast so excuse me and my nervous laughter, but this week's special guest is THE Dr Rachel Rodgers who is basically responsible for the majority of body image research. I was fortunate to ask her all about body positivity, whether "loving your body" is helpful and where the field of body image as a whole is going. Dr Rodgers is an Associate Professor at Northeastern University and you can read her publications here .

A lot of people are advised by medical professionals to lose weight. This isn't necessarily a bad thing (and you should follow the advice of your medical professional not a podcast!), but do you really need to diet on 1200 calories to support your hormonal health? Or is it adding more stress? Let's discuss. BODY IMAGE GYM INFO WORK WITH ME: Coaching Disordered Eating Informed Body Image & Nutrition Review @michellecarroll1
Today I am joined by a very good friend of mine, Gillian Bennett, aka Bite Sized Nutrition. Gillian is a nutrition coach and mentor, who has recently pivoted her niche into coaching and mentoring mothers. I had lots of questions for her, ranging from how to market to mothers without losing your sense of identity , whether we should niche at all and we also chatted about some common fears coaches have when moving niches (or even finding one in the first place!). Head over to Gillian's podcast for Part 2 where we talk about body image and the ethics of documenting your fat loss journey to get clients...

As the fitness industry continues its rampant decline into thinly-veiled promotion of fitness as being an “aesthetic” and not something that can be measured and tested, it’s time to consider what happens if you DO get the dream body you’ve always wanted... and why it won't be enough unless you work on your body image!

How do we prevent adolescents from getting eating disorders? And how do we approach these conversations without fear of "getting it wrong"? I sat down with Penny Greening from Reframe Voices, a Canadian-based charity aimed at reducing eating disorders in adolescents and beyond, and we had a chat that could have gone on for hours... But we capped it at 50ish minutes of discussions surrounding her journey, sport and ED prevention. ABOUT PENNY Canadian-born Penny Greening is a former communications agency director, community mental health advocate and nonprofit founder whose work sits at the intersection of education and social impact. During the height of the pandemic, Penny became Director of Marketing for premium personal training franchise Innovative Fitness, where she helped promote a whole-person approach to health, fitness and nutrition while raising her teenage daughter. A breast cancer survivor at 42, Penny also took a hot-minute to compete in three World Natural Bodybuilding Federation shows between 2019 and 2024, moving through Figure, Fitbody and Bodybuilding categories. That experience ultimately revealed some of her own “best-kept” and darkest secrets—what she calls “the monster.” Penny is now serving her fifth term on the board of Variety – The Children’s Charity of BC. And in 2025, she founded Reframe Voices Society after recognizing a critical gap in public awareness of how and when eating disorders truly begin. Today, Penny leads a multidisciplinary team of volunteers equipping parents and guardians of school-aged children and teens with the language and practical tools to protect their children’s mental health when it comes to food, feelings and body talk.

The fitness industry appears to be swinging back towards fat loss, dieting, tracking and transformation marketing - and coaches need to think critically about whether they are following the market or leading it. In today's epsiode I'm going to talk about why everyone seems to be pushing fat loss again - and what to do if you're feeling the pull.

idk how anyone who's neurodivergent is ok when this is the advice given to people (they aren't).

Ah, the humble check-in. The online coach's bread and butter... and in my opinion, one of the biggest areas for improvement for most coaches. What do you ask clients? How do you ask them?

In addition to being one of the coolest people alive, and one of the most insane performers I have ever seen, CMAT was victim of body shaming online after her festival performance (God forbid a woman exists) last weekend. Let's chat about how CMAT exemplifies what it means to have positive body image, and why we should all STFU commenting on any woman's body.
