Ep. 0013: Disordered Eating, Body Politics + Self Defense with Nicole Snell

Meet Nicole Snell - A dynamic international speaker, CEO of Girls Fight Back, the creator of Outdoor Defense and an impeccable ray of Black Girl Magic. She is the self-defense instructor for IMPACT Personal Safety and an adventure leader for Black Girls Trekkin. She has traveled the world speaking to hundreds of groups at colleges, K- 12 schools, corporations and the military on topics including sexual assault and violence prevention, boundaries, personal safety and empowerment. Nicole won a Webby Award in 2020 for hosting the Tastemade Travel video "Self Defense for Female Travelers" where she represented IMPACT Personal Safety. Nicole is a NACP credentialed advocate and has dedicated her life to teaching people how to live a confident, free and empowered life. As an outdoor enthusiast and solo traveler, she's visited 25 countries on 6 continents.

On this episode, Nicole and Latoya explore a series of sensitive areas: Disordered eating, race identity, self defense and sexual assault. Both women talk about their mental and physical relationship with exercise, how to unlearn toxic thought processes about weight and exercise and the stigmas surrounding body image. Nicole weighs out the pros and cons to using weapons and how to prepare your body and mind in life threatening situations.
