About this Event
The outdoor community often carries an unspoken pressure to look like a "traditional athlete," creating an exclusionary and often toxic standard for those who spend time outside. These pressures can lead to a complicated relationship with food, fueled by the misconception that eating less will make us faster, stronger, or more "fit."
We believe this topic isn't discussed nearly enough, despite affecting so many members in our community. To help change the narrative, the Teton County Health Department, Womemtum, and Women in the Tetons are hosting Taking Up Space, an intimate and honest community conversation at Black Diamond on Thursday, June 18.
Our speakers include athlete Madison Ostergren, licensed therapist and registered dietitian Mary Ryan, registered dietitian Eden Morris, Ride Force founder Taylor-Ann Smith, and Womentum program director Elisabeth Rohrbach.
The panel will share lived experiences, practical resources, and pathways of support for navigating body image and disordered eating.
All are welcome whether you are navigating your own experience or showing up for others. Professional clinicians will be present in the case you need someone
to talk to during or after the event.
Please join us as we dismantle these harmful stereotypes and return to the pure joy of moving outdoors—exactly as we are.
Doors open at 5:30 PM. Pizza and refreshments will be provided.
This event is made possible thanks to our wonderful partners: Black Diamond, CredibleMind, Womentum, and Women in the Tetons.
