Have you been struggling with the number on the scale? We\u2019re learning how to ignore that number and tune into our bodies. In this episode, I talk with Katie Bramlett. She\u2019s the co-founder of WeShape & a fierce advocate for bringing awareness to women's health and fitness. She is breaking toxic weight-loss culture by empowering people to connect with and care for their bodies. She is also the co-host of The WeShape Podcast. We discuss why she created WeShape, and what changed for her in your own journey with her body. Katie shares the importance of not seeking validation in others and why listening to our body should come first.
