Body Included
A podcast for women who are tired of their body taking up so much of their day. Conversations about body image, food, movement, intimacy and trusting yourself, and about the life that's meant to be happening around all of it. No rules to follow and nothing to fix. I'm Leni. I'm a somatic coach, yoga teacher and sports therapist, and I know body obsession from the inside. Here I talk about what actually changes, on my own and with guests.
