When you move your body are you thinking of the calories you want to burn, or are you experiencing the sheer joy of spending your energy on something? Let’s talk about that. Today’s guests are actively making the world a better and more inclusive place. Marley Blonsky and Kailey Kornhauser are the creators of All Bodies on Bikes, a community of cyclists who don’t limit themselves to just one body type and operate with the intention of ‘no one left behind.' They are advocates who are changing the narrative that you have to look a certain way in order to feel a certain way, and helping other organizations do the same.    Let’s get right into the conversation with these incredible ladies, blast open the doors of possibility, and begin changing the way we think, not the way we look!    [00:01 - 7:00] Opening Segment I introduce Kailey Kornhauser and Marley Blonsky  How Marley and Kailey are impacting the world with their work  Marley explains how they got started  Becoming unlikely advocates  Kailey talks about the cultural shifts in sports  [07:01 - 18:21] Movement Should be Joyful not Punishing The girls talk about the ‘joy of movement’  Refocusing on how we spend energy  It shouldn’t be a punishment but a positive experience  Marley’s story and experience - the joy of inclusivity Being conscious of the intention of what we do It still takes work  Making people feel more welcome  Communicating expectations and intentions [18:22 - 34:23] Changing the Way We Think, Not the Way We Look  No such thing as the perfect body  Freeing people from the idea of perfection  Our vessel is not our values What you give your attention to grows ‘Fat’ is not a bad word - breaking down buzzwords What to say and what not to say  Sensitivity to self-identification  The origins of the word ‘obesity’ Tackling the concept of ‘BMI’ A word about Conspiracy of Goodness Network [34:24 - 46:27] Don’t Blame Yourself for Your Genetics  Marley tells the story of the twins The impact genetics have over environment  Marley talks about how her genealogy comes into play  The reality of abundance and scarcity  Keeper/Thrifty Genes The influencers in this field  Joining the community  Resources below  Your identity and your movement    [46:28 - 56:18] Closing Segment Connect to the joy of movement not the movement itself A vision of possibility  Active transportation  What brings you joy Connect with Marley and Kailey  Links below What proves to Marley and Kailey that it’s still an amazing world Final announcements    Tweetable Quotes: “We didn’t set out to be advocates for people in larger bodies. But we realized that we had a story to tell and that we resonated with people and that biking is an amazing activity for people who live in larger bodies.” - Marley Blonsky  “I think if we talk more about the JOY of moving our bodies then we invite more people in than if we talk about other motivations for moving.” - Kailey Kornhauser “I hope at the end of the day that people realize that there is so much more to them than their body… What really matters is what’s inside, what our values are, our personality; this is just our vessel.” - Marley Blonsky “If you put so much stock and value on what you look like and not who you are as a person, and your character, then when you no longer have that body… what’s left?” - Marley Blonsky Resources Mentioned: Social Media Group: All Bodies on Bikes FB Group All Bodies on Bikes Instagram Articles and Studies: Article with Marley and Kailey Glossary of Words to Use and Not Use Twins Study Metabolic Thrift and Genetic Basis The Story of Sam Blooms Books: What We Don’t Talk About When We Talk About ‘Fat’ Podcast Episode: Love Your Body Shape More with Julia Parzyck Connect with Marley on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
