body neutrality or self-acceptance label and that doesn't mean that I'm just gonna like drink all this soda all day and like you know just not give two shits about my size or my weight and never move my body again no I move my body and like Jillian has said joyful movements bullshit and

It's like, to me, joyful movement's the only thing that gets me moving.

And going on a hike with a friend is joyful to me.

And meeting a trainer at the gym is joyful to me.

And it's a privilege to be able to do.

So I move my body now because I can.

So for me, it's like to say, because body positivity was the hook that got me in.

And if I will say, just kind of shut that NASDAQ ticker off, right?

Or just lowered the volume.

And when the volume is so loud on the fact that your body is wrong your whole life, it's oppressive.

It's just frankly oppressive.

And that's why people are running towards this body positivity world.

That's all I can say.

It's like I truly feel like it saved me.

And whatever I need to do with my body and my fitness and my food in order for my

you know, physiology, you know, my body to function the best.

That's, that's on the table and that's a different thing though.

But for me, body neutrality and self-acceptance has helped lower the volume on that track in my mind.

I need my ambition turned up.

I need my drive to work and perform and to get out there and like do something more than I need to be thin.
