Skinny Culture vs Strength Training: The Dangerous Difference

Описание: Hello Kettlebell queen! In this episode, I'm calling out the toxic return of skinny culture, why TikTok banned the #SkinnyTalk hashtag, and the dangerous difference between starving yourself into thinness versus building actual strength.


What we're diving into:
✨ My eating disorder origin story (and the "friend" who triggered it all)
✨ Why Liv Schmidt and #SkinnyTalk got banned from TikTok in 2025
✨ The difference between discipline and disordered eating
✨ "Treadmill shutting off because you're too light" as the ultimate goal (WTF?)
✨ Why skinny privilege is real but shouldn't dictate your goals
✨ The power dynamics behind why women chase thinness for acceptance
✨ Strong vs skinny: why muscle is the real luxury
✨ How to do fat loss the RIGHT way (calorie deficits without starvation)
✨ Why chronic dieters need reverse diets before cutting again
✨ My 30-pound intentional weight gain and what it taught me


The truth bomb: You can shrink yourself into oblivion chasing skinny, or you can BUILD yourself into someone powerful. Muscle is what you earn—not what you starve for. And walking into a room knowing you're strong enough to carry your partner out of danger? That's the flex.


I'm sharing why glamorizing extreme thinness is aesthetic trauma disguised as wellness, the nuance between healthy fat loss and disordered restriction, why tracking macros isn't the same as obsessing over being small, and what happened when I gained 30 pounds on purpose. Plus the reality that some clients left when I got bigger—and why I did it anyway. If you've been caught in skinny culture or wondering what the difference is between my approach and toxic diet content, this episode is for YOU.
