Fitness instructor turned CEO, Bethany C. Meyers, discusses why shifting the motive for movement is a key to long term physical and mental health. After struggling with eating disorders and body dysmorphia for the majority of their fitness career, Meyers tossed out their old rule book and their bathroom scale with the intention of becoming
body neutral — meaning some days we feel positive about our body, some days we feel negative about our body, but all days we respect our body. In this vulnerable, incredibly personal talk, Meyers insists that we have the power to defy beauty standards simply by celebrating who we already are.
