This was recorded early fall 2021.

Alexia was a social media expert presenter for a virtual event I attended spring of 2021 and I knew I wanted to connect with her again. Alexia is based in L.A and is the founder of @lex_topia she’s a woman moving in the world with purpose and co-host of the podcast @carliescouch (A podcast about creating your best life, whatever that looks like for you.)  I was thrilled she took time and said yes to sharing her body story!   

You can find Alexia on IG @lex_topia .   Thank you for listening and I pray something resonates with you.

Please join the FIRST Body Story Movement Social: A Rooftop meditation, journaling and storytelling event in support of The Body Story Movement Scholarship :)

I am Coco Benitez, the founder of The Body Story Movement and I want to say thank you very much for listening.

I am interviewing women from all over asking, “what is your body story and where would you like to begin?”

The Body Story Movement was created in 2021 to encourage girls and women to hold appreciation for their bodies during each phase of their lives; all through the exchange of powerful personal storytelling!   My desire in creating The Body Story Movement derives from my struggles with really loving my body, always wanting to fix, lose, get rid of.....I would have loved a podcast where I could just listen to women's stories.

These stories are phase I of this movement.

Phase II is the Body Story Movement Scholarship.   This enriched mentorship experience cultivates connection between ambitious young women in high school & college and professional women ready to serve as mentors.  For a year, mentors and mentees will engage in sponsored events in the Washington, DC area, curated to encourage mental, physical and emotional well-being.  Body Story Movement Socials will be emersed throughout the year-long experience, with participant data collected along the journey to share feedback with national and local supporters.
