This week we welcome our first guest on the show, Ly Kerr. In this episode she shares her personal story of experiencing medical weight stigma and the impact it had on her journey to body liberation.
Her story reminds us of the prevalence of weight bias in our health care system and the harmful effects it has on individuals in bigger bodies seeking medical care.
If you feel alone in your struggles navigating medical fatphobia, and may be wondering how to advocate for yourself or if you can ever find body acceptance, then this episode is for you.
