Why Bodybuilding Isn't the Problem, trauma dumping online & why you need to get uncomfortable with Jas Meraki

from The UNFILTERED Empowered Woman Podcast · host Elin Granstrand

In this episode I’m joined by the incredible Jas Meraki. We went deep into the parts of the fitness industry that most people are too afraid to talk about.In this episode, we break down: The Vulnerability Line: How to be real and authentic online without crossing into "trauma dumping." The Bodybuilding Myth: Why the sport itself doesn't cause EDs—and what the actual root cause is. The Power of Discomfort: Why being uncomfortable is a non-negotiable part of the growth process. Jas’s Journey: Powerlifting and bodybuilding and the lessons learned along the way.This isn't your typical "fitness tips" episode. This is a raw conversation about the mindset, the struggle, and the reality of being a high-level athlete in a world that values perfection over peace.My Instagram: elingranstrand & the.empoweredwomanJas's IG: jasmerakiiJoin The Empowered Woman Program.I’ve put together this program for the woman who wants 1:1 support, but also wants to be a part of a group of women who are going through the same things as yourself - not feeling good enough, feeling stuck in fight/flight and being consumed with thoughts of food.⁠Book in a free call with me ⁠WATCH MY FREE WORKSHOP
