Ok team, it’s time for some real talk. There’s an enormous amount of privilege and a dearth of diversity in the blogging & wellness game. What gives? And why is no one speaking about it? Everyone too busy counting their macros to give a damn? Chidera and I go deep on this issue, and how it’s being reflected on a global level. We also get into the business of figuring out who you are, learning to love yourself, and how your value extends wayyyy beyond how your body looks (and I would add how swole you are, how much you work out, what you eat or how much you weigh – just sayin’). Chidera is an incredible woman and this ‘sode delivers so many lessons – LEAN IN AND LISTEN CAREFULLY.

This episode is supported by the awesome Squirrel Sisters – if you haven’t checked out their delicious fruit & nut snack bars yet, then I suggest you get your cute little butt down to your nearest Boots, Planet Organic, or Wholefoods store. They come in 4 flavours: raspberry ripple, coconut cashew, cocoa brownie, and cacao orange. They’re a great source of fibre and plant based protein; a good option for refuelling after a workout, or just a lil snack to tide you over. You can also get 15% off by using the code ‘dontsaltmysquirrel’ in their online shop. And don’t forget to tag your pics with ‘dontsaltmysquirrel’ so I can be nosey.
