Allowing Women the Freedom of Loving Their Bodies with Courtney McCarthy
In this episode, we have special guest Courtney McCarthy on the show to discuss societal pressures on women in the gym environment, and her story on creating Loyobo. Women specifically are put under a lot of pressure to look a certain way, and meet stereotypes. Her goal was to create an environment that allows women to work out as a way of self love, setting personal goals, and taking back their bodies.
Courtney McCarthy is the CEO and founder of Loyobo, a community for women who are sick of trying to be smaller. This isn't about weight loss. This is about learning how to love your body and feel strong so you can take up more space in your life! Radical body acceptance, Joyful Movement, and Food Freedom. Courtney's mission, as an ACE Certified Fitness Instructor, Body Image and Mindful Eating Coach, is to show women how to write your own rules when it comes to fitness and health. She will be your biggest hype girl along the way. Courtney is always down for a dance party. When she is not working, she loves going for long walks with her puppy Archie and cuddling with her cat, Munchkin. The Loyobo Virtual Platform & Community includes live fitness classes, on demand videos, group coaching, cooking calls, mindful eating support, and more!
