Join us to connect, reflect, and share experiences!
This 6-week group offers a supportive and affirming space for those looking to build fat community, explore personal fat liberation, and process the challenges of navigating the world in a larger body. Together, we’ll create a space where participants feel safe to share their thoughts, feelings, and lived experiences—all within a framework of respect, acceptance, and empowerment.
Who This Group is For
This group is designed for you if:
You identify as fat or live in a larger body
You’re seeking greater Fat Liberation and Fat Acceptance in your life
You’re ready to let go of Diet Culture ideals and explore new perspectives
You’re looking for meaningful community and connection with others who share similar experiences
You are 18+ and can commit to attending a 6-week, in-person group in Kirkland, WA
What This Group is Not
This group is not a space for Diet Culture or anti-fatness. Specifically:
There will be no discussion of dieting, intentional weight loss, or moral judgments about bodies, food, or movement
This is not a space for perpetuating anti-fat rhetoric or shaming—whether subtle or overt
Discrimination or bias against fat people and their intersecting identities will not be tolerated
Inclusion, diversity, and a deep sense of community are core to this group’s foundation. We’re here to honor each other’s experiences, uplift one another, and imagine new possibilities—together.
