Get ready, because this fall we are headed to Fat Joy Jubilee: an all inclusive weekend retreat in the Poconos created to celebrate the subversive joy that comes pinned to our rejection of anti-fat bias. 

Fat Joy Jubilee is a space to advance body liberation, and to cultivate fellowship.  The in-person retreat will be preceded by multiple opportunities to get to know both myself and your fellow attendees, including 3 virtual workshops on restoring body trust and lifetime access to a private Facebook community for participants to access resources, share updates, and enhance their sense of connection.

Buckle up, bestie, because the rumors are true: You, me, and a small group of our new BFF’s are about to have the best weekend of our fat little lives.


During the last few years I have spent thousands (and THOUSANDS!) of hours with my therapy clients, and I’ve heard a hundred different versions of the same agonizing story: “My body is a problem, and I feel helpless to solve it.”  I love my work and couldn’t be prouder of the folks who’ve entrusted me with their care. But, for a long time now I’ve wanted to provide something else…something new.


Get ready, because this fall we are headed to Fat Joy Jubilee: an all inclusive weekend retreat in the Poconos created to celebrate the subversive joy that comes pinned to our rejection of anti-fat bias. Fat Joy Jubilee is a space to advance body liberation, and to cultivate fellowship. The in-person retreat will be preceded by multiple opportunities to get to know both myself and your fellow attendees, including 3 virtual workshops on restoring body trust and lifetime access to a private Facebook community for participants to access resources, share updates, and enhance their sense of connection.


Look, you’ve started following the right content creators, and you’ve subscribed to the right podcasts and newsletters. You’ve bought a lot of books recently. You’ve begun to more assertively excuse yourself from diet-culture-laced conversations at work, or around the table at the holidays. But at the end of the day, you just need to surround yourself with people who get it. You need to take that comment Aunt Sharon made and hold it up to the light in a room full of people who will say, “no, girl, that was definitely messed up.” Come on over. We’ve got a place set for you at the table, and the seat is as sturdy and supportive as the company.

 

Because this retreat is built on intimacy and safety, there are only a handful of spots available.  Each of the three registration types (Equity, Standard, & Pay-It-Forward) reflects an all-inclusive retreat package with at minimum of a twin bed and shared room. 


Accommodation upgrades (queen/king bed, private room, etc.) will be honored as best we can based on availability for additional cost, which helps offset scholarships and equity pricing for the event.

 

​​I want to make sure that anyone who has been waiting for this is able to access it. Because of this, I am excited to offer the following discounts (offers cannot be combined; highest value discount will be applied)
