In this Heart to Heart conversation, Dr. Catherine Seo and Lisa Duerre are joined by Sherilyn Trompetter and Sky Mclaughlin, founders of Larger Luxury, a movement dedicated to making luxury spa experiences truly inclusive. If you’ve ever questioned whether luxury and self-care are for you, this conversation will open your eyes to the systemic barriers that keep many people—especially those with Lipedema—from accessing the rest and rejuvenation they deserve. Sherilyn and Skye share their personal experiences and the driving force behind their mission to certify spas and wellness spaces that cater to all body sizes, from ill-fitting robes to inaccessible treatment spaces.

Together, we unpack the realities of fat bias, the emotional toll of exclusion, and the power of reclaiming space. Whether you have Lipedema, love someone who does, or simply want to be part of a more inclusive world, this episode is a must-listen.
