Thank you!

Hello Cathe fans! It's been ages since I've visited these awesome forums! Brings back great memories. I'm reading a book called Lifting Heavy Things about using weight lifting to release trauma. This is why I'm here. I'm looking for a HAES and trauma informed personal trainer to help me...
