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.

Fat Joy Jubilee Lunch Bunch
Bring your left-overs and let's nourish ourselves, body and soul! In these 6 virtual group sessions spread over 12 weeks, we'll cultivate radical hospitality to ourselves and one another as we collaborate in resisting diet culture.
Time & Location:
Nov 14, 2025, 12:00 PM – Jan 23, 2026, 1:00 PM
Virtual
What to Expect:
Join us for six virtual group sessions where participants come to try on new ideas, practice courageous hospitality to self, and co-create an environment where all present are welcome and affirmed. Each session will include time for intentional welcome, optional trauma-informed embodiment practice, group learning, discussion/activity, & closing. Groups are meant to fit into a lunch hour (both in time and intensity).
Participants can expect to come away from each session feeling both challenged and encouraged, with resources and shared ideas on body liberation and fat joy. Most of all, participants can expect to enjoy a space where they feel seen and heard just as they are.
Fall Lunch Bunch Dates (Noon-1pm EST):
11.14.25, 11.28.25, 12.12.25, 12.26.25, 1.9.26, 1.23.26

Our host Chelsea Hall is a licensed clinical social worker with nearly a decade of experience supporting clients navigating weight stigma & eating disorder recovery. Chelsea is trained in the Body Trust framework, and is pending the final stages of certification to become an official "Body Trust Certified" practitioner. She hopes that by facilitating these types of supportive, non-clinical spaces, we can work to undermine the systems and beliefs that keep diet culture big business, and keep all of us less connected to one another and to our own bodies.
Note: This group is not automatically recommended for those in active engagement with an eating disorder; please discuss with Chelsea if you are uncertain whether this event is a good fit for you at this time. Because this is not a psychotherapy group and should not be thought of as a substitute for mental health services, each participant is encouraged to consider whether additional supports may make their participation in the groups more effective. Fat Joy Jubilee is happy to provide referrals for many incredible therapists, Registered Dietitians, and other anti-diet professionals as needed.
