StaytheCourse
Plus Size Community: Supporting Full-Bodied Living
Staff & Board
Laurie Todd, Founder/Executive Director
Is dedicated to encouraging people of size to live not
by the proportions of their bodies, but by the depth of
their hearts.

Laurie has lived in a lavishly-dimensioned body most of
her life and can testify to the healing power of
emotional health and the building of self esteem.

Laurie is thrilled to be able to share her dream with all
who desire to live their lives regardless of their body
image.
