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.

What to Expect:
Like all Fat Joy Jubilee events, our retreats are a space to explore body liberation and to cultivate fellowship. Still, we have to admit it, the retreats are our favorite way to hang out with this amazing community! Our first two retreats took in the beauty of the Poconos and the kitschy charm of Jim Thorpe, PA. This year we will enjoy what New England and the Greater Boston Area have to offer!
Retreats feature a number of rotating options for enhancing and embracing your experience of fat joy, including: outings to fat-owned and fat-positive businesses, outdoor and movement experiences celebrating body diversity, group discussions and learning opportunities from experts on a variety of topics through a fat lens. Also, rest! This is a retreat after all. Our featured experts thus far have included Bri Campos and Noelle Benach. Who would you like to hear from next??
Each in-person retreat is preceded by virtual opportunities to get to know both your hosts and your fellow attendees. As the retreat cohort comes together, participants will be able to share contact info and updates, access digital resources, and enhance their sense of connection before and after the retreat.
