About the Facilitator:
Abigail Ladd is a health coach, fitness trainer, yoga teacher, and fat lady! She have been working in fitness spaces most of my life, but her relationship with food & movement wasn’t always a healthy one. Shestruggled with an eating disorder for most of her life and sadly that created a disordered relationship with fitness.
In recovery, she not only had to heal her relationship with food, but I also had to rediscover a healthy relationship with movement, which is no easy task in our fitness culture of “no pain, no gain.” It was a slow and intentional process. It involved a lot of self-compassion, permission, and an anti-diet & Health at Every Size approach.
It is now her life’s mission to help others make sustainable changes to their life while healing their relationship with food and movement. She is committed to reducing barriers to access and making health & fitness spaces more inclusive, welcoming, and completely shame-free!
