On this episode I’m joined by body positive activist, Victoria Welsby. We don’t waste any time and get real personal, real fast. Victoria shares how she got into the work of fat body positivity and the path to discovering her worth. She also walks me through what it was like taking her clothes off in front of 2,600 people and the reception she received afterwards. We jam on Fatphobia, Vancouver’s obsession with health and wellness and the discrimination Victoria commonly faces. She gives me solid advice on how to be an advocate and be in allyship for all bodies and what we need to do to re-write the negative connotations associated with the word ‘fat’. Victoria shares SO MANY fresh perspectives on what it means to be ‘healthy’, our dysfunctional love of celebrating weight loss and dating. I’ll say it again, dating.
