Jillian Michaels

But it kind of is, and that's kind of the problem, is that there's no centralized guideline

I think she is really limited in what she sees the movement as.

She's blaming the movement for the things that people who have co-opted the movement are doing.

Call out the co-opters, don't call out the movement for not calling out the co-opters.

I do think there's a kernel in what Jillian said about like,

you know, thinking that body positivity focuses a little too much on the personal.

From our perspective, we want to move beyond just the personal.

We think the personal is important.

You got to believe you're worthy of fair and equal treatment in order to demand fair and equal treatment.

But we're going to work on the fair and equal treatment pieces of it.

She was cool.

She was calm.

She was collected.

And I don't know what exactly she's totally talking about, but she is confident in her messaging.

What we're here to say is that we don't wanna spend our entire life trying to change our body.

Shaming me into thinking that I should get on that thing, I should get on the scale or whatever, that's not gonna work on me.

Shame has no place in my life.

And to me, that's true liberation.

Shame is not a part of this.

I can't continue on with this shame.
