Rebuilding, Not Bouncing Back: Postpartum Body Image
About this podcast
Dear Runner Bod is a podcast hosted by anti-diet running dietitian & body image coach, Serena Marie RD. Dear Runner Bod’s mission is to empower females to embrace their body as a runner’s body no matter their level of fitness, shape or size. I am hoping to interview experts in the running community who can provide advice on how to cultivate health, fitness, resiliency and self-compassion as a female runner.
