Body Reclamation Podcast

Reclaiming Body Trust with Hilary Kinavey and Dana Sturtevant

Nazira Sacasa

In 2005, Hilary Kinavey and Dana Sturtevant, co-founded the Center for Body Trust, a community based outpatient clinic and professional training institute that created Body Trust - a strength-based, trauma-informed, scientifically grounded healing modality that encourages movement toward a compassionate, weight-inclusive model of radical self-care to address body oppression, heal body shame and associated patterns of chronic dieting and disordered eating.  Their book Reclaiming Body Trust: A Path to Healing and Liberation is available now.

In this episode, we explore:

  • What is body trust and what ruptures our body trust 
  • Phases of body trust: rupture, reckoning, reclamation 
  • Reclaiming joy and pleasure 
  • The role embodiment plays in body trust 
  • Why the BMI is not an indicator of health
  • Letting go of perfectionism and going for C work
