Our Mission
At Running Fat Chef, our mission is deeply rooted in inclusivity, accessibility, and empowerment. We strive to cultivate a welcoming online hub where individuals from all walks of life can come together to explore the interconnected worlds of fitness, food, and personal fulfillment. Central to our ethos is the celebration of diversity, as we actively amplify the voices and stories of those often marginalized in mainstream discourse. Whether you identify as Black, Indigenous, a person of color, LGBTQ+, a rebel challenging societal norms, plus sized, or simply someone who feels overlooked, you have a place within our community. We believe in the power of collective storytelling to challenge stereotypes, rewrite narratives, and promote acceptance of all bodies and journeys.

Through fostering empathy, understanding, and collective growth, we endeavor to challenge stereotypes, rewrite societal narratives, and pave the way for a more inclusive and equitable society, both online and offline.

Running Fat Chef Pledge
I pledge to honor and uphold the values of inclusivity, empowerment, and celebration of diversity within and outside of the Running Fat Chef community. I promise to bring my full flavor to the table, spicing up our community with humor, honesty, vulnerability, and willingness to lean into the hard things because we are capable of seeing it through. I will respect the fellow community members, their boundaries and uphold my own. I will actively listen, learn, and amplify marginalized voices, promoting acceptance of all bodies and embracing the beauty of diverse perspectives. I will lean into this community with curiosity, daring to remix and challenge the stereotypes perpetuated in the fitness, culinary and wellness space. We honor that we are not asking permission to move throughout the world. We chase goals, not holes. We celebrate, not obliterate. We will not crucify ourselves under the harsh conditions of perfection or allow setbacks to hold us back for long. I strive to be the best version of me plus tax – I am always worthy. My story is worth writing, telling, and sharing. I pledge to be the best emcee who narrates my life.
