About this episode

Helen and Amy discuss the joys of social nudity and its impact on self-acceptance and connection.

Amy Guerrier, known online as Bare Bum Boaty and Abso-Boatly-Fabulous, is a hula hoop artist, clown, improv performer, and mindset coach who lives aboard a 60-foot wide beam canal boat. Just 35 days before this recording she started an implied nude Instagram account on a whim, stumbled into the naturist community, and hasn't looked back since. In this episode, Helen and Amy explore what it means to follow joy without a plan, why social nudity so quickly strips away pretence and deepens connection, and how the simple act of questioning your language can transform your relationship with yourself and your body. She also shares her exuberant first visit to Sunfolk, and her very serious yet silly plans for a naked cruise and silent disco aboard her boat.
