YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Zuby is joined by mother-daughter duo, Helene Leeds and Penelope Popken - creators of the 'Step It Up' weight loss program and podcast. Helene and Penelope discuss their personal journeys with health and fitness, the challenges of obesity in their family, and the health industry writ large. We dive into the impact of the 'body positivity' movement, the dangers of 'fat acceptance', food regulation, and the deleterious effects of social media on young women.
