E45: Deep Squats, Deep Thoughts with Shravya

Disabled Girls Who Lift

Marybeth & Marcia get to know more about Shrayva from the previous panel of spoons episodes. We speak on cultural appropriation, toxic fitness culture, California wildfires, body policing & fat shaming, and chasing gains with a chronic illness. Listen along as cat loving Shrayva shares her stories of battling insurance & pharmacies, colorism from family members, shitty doctors, and more. Hosts for this episode: Marcia Darbouze (@thatdoc.marcia), Marybeth Baluyot (@merrbertt) A message from DGWL: We do our very best to ensure we are inclusive to all members of the community. Not very many podcasts consider the deaf and hard-of-hearing population, but we applaud those who do and challenge those who don’t. That said, we are looking for volunteers to help us transcribe future episodes--there are transcriptions available online for our current episodes--but we still need help! Please send us a message on our website--www.disabledgirlswholift.com--if you have transcribing experience and are interested in joining the crew!
