Introducing "SHINE Stories", a podcast by SHINE FIT, where we invite leaders in our community share their “shine story”. Each guest talks about how they ditched diet culture, healed their relationship with fitness, and transformed their confidence. Hosted by our Founder, Jess Takimoto, this podcast discusses body image, mental health, disordered eating, and the harmful effects of diet culture. Join us in changing the fitness industry narrative of what fitness “looks like”, because STRONG comes in all shapes, sizes and colours. Prepare to leave feeling connected, inspired and empowered!
