Welcome back to Kweencast, by @avokween.
Today we're chatting about body changes during quarantine. I've received dozens of messages about this topic, so I thought it was time to do a full episode on it. I touch on:

What happens if your body changes during quarantine?
Why does weight gain = failure?
Fatphobia & COVID-19
Why weight fluctuations are NORMAL

And more ;)

Kira West, @bykwest: freedom, side hustling, and why is wellness so white?!

Welcome back to Kweencast, by @avokween.
Today I chat with Kira West of @bykwest. We met a few months ago and hit it off right away — I *knew* I had to invite her on the pod. We talk about:

Freedom: in food, fitness and beyond
Side hustling: Kira works full time, AND runs her brand solo. She shares time management tips and how she does it all
Inclusion in wellness: why it's her passion to raise awareness about lack of diversity in the wellness industry, and what YOU can do about it.

I'm obsessed with her and I know you will be too! Enjoy the episode — and don't forget to leave a review. We pick a new winner each week to win some free Granola Butter!
