Episode 2.4 Pt I I : Shovel AKA Fat_Girl_Has_Moxi + QueerGirlStraightSkates

Skaterade

Part two of our Shovel episode kicks off with a little spirituality. Rebel and Shove share the role that crystals, witchyness, and intention play in their lives.
They also use their spirituality to manifest their goals and futures, and they open up about their experiences as fat and alternative models in major campaigns.
We get into the important role they play as representation of a unique queer relationship, and they answer whether they will be sharing their upcoming wedding with their audience.

They revisit two major injuries Rebel had during the height of the pandemic, and how Shove went above and beyond on many levels to get her through it. We touch on the importance of therapy to help contextualize one’s life beyond their identity as a roller skater, and find balance in all realms of one’s life.

Shove explores the intersection of her creative process and mental illness.
Both Rebel and Shove offer advice to skaters struggling to strap on their skates in tough times.
Lastly, we round out the conversation with reflecting how important it is to nurture our relationships outside of skating.
