    Being fat adds another layer of trauma to the existing mental health issues impacting today’s modern world. How did that impact the Fatsos? What have they done about it individually to emerge? Will they ever fully recover? How do they navigate the world with their learnings and demons? Ameya and Pallavi discuss some never-before shared personal experiences as they journey through their experience with mental health. And come to a realisation about oxygen masks and kindness. Also, Ameya gets back to ranting, a few times!

Why do we hate fat bodies so much? And what can we do about it? Listen now to find out.

    Moving your body is just the most natural thing, but when you are fat it gets layered with the need for it to result in weight loss. In addition the “exercise industry” which shows fit people get fitter and is not inclusive to larger sizes.
