Podcasts about cake plus size resale

Health research related to weight and the idea of obesity is a frequent topic in the news. Just recently, we've been hearing about the diabetes medication Ozempic being used for weight loss and that the American Academy of Pediatrics revised their guidelines for treating children diagnosed with obesity to include weight loss medications and potentially surgery starting at age 13. Obesity and weight loss research is a complex and sometimes emotionally difficult topic and we wanted to try to look at it from multiple viewpoints to get a fuller picture of the research being done and how it's shaping healthcare. So, for this show, we talked to a recent graduate from the Master's of Public Health program about her experiences in fat activism and research in the fat community, and we also spoke to a professor and researcher from the School of Public Health who focuses on weight-related health. The following organizations were mentioned in this show: The Radical Health Alliance, Cake Plus-Size Resale, National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance, and the Association for Size Diversity and Health.

Pay attention people – SWIMSUIT MODEL MollyMay+ is declaring herself fat! MollyMay+ is talking about her journey from big girl to fat and how she found the right language to describe herself. This week MollyMay+ is exploring being fat in a plus-size society and what it means to stop existing to change your body and start existing in a space that embraces being happy (without having to change your body to do it). Stop saying “I’ll be happy when I can fit in that dress” or “I’ll enjoy myself when I lose 5 pounds” allow yourself to be happy today – where you’re at now!

Matter of Fat is back with a full-length episode serving you a body positive podcast with Midwest sensibilities. Co-hosts Cat Polivoda and Saraya Boghani highlight community voices with a focus on body size, body positivity, + fat liberation. It’s been around... uh…. 8 months since the last full episode came out so the Fat Dish is robust. Cat and Saraya started out the episode with an updated version of the segment with a more specific check in about their lives. Any community events will be shared at the end of each episode going forward. In the Fat Dish, the co-hosts acknowledged the pandemic, the murder of George Floyd, the importance of police abolition in social change, personal changes over the past 8 months, and the first Podluck taking place the day after release. You’ll be delighted to hear an interview with Kachina Yeager. Kachina shares her story as a Matter of Fat which includes her internship through Cake Plus-Size Resale. She also provides some beautiful insight into the Dakotah language, independent publishing through her fellowship with Milkweed Editions, and some audio/book recommendations that both Cat and Saraya have added to their rotation. In the Dirt and Discourse, our intrepid podcasters wade into the excitement and discomfort around relevant pop and cultural happenings. This time around, there isn’t much excitement but it sure is relevant. Cat and Saraya discuss how unhelpful and downright harmful it is to lament gaining weight in the midst of a worldwide panic. “Riots not diets” makes more sense now than ever before.

I am so excited to share this chat I recorded with the one and the only, Lelia Gowland, Founder and CEO of Lelia Gowland, LLC! This episode was recorded on September 25th, and I was supposed to release it on November 14th, in time for the launch of her incredible book You Got This: The Ultimate Negotiation Guide For Professional Women. But, I got slammed by life in many ways. If I had read her book earlier, I might have been able to negotiate my way out of the over-commitment in so many ways! Lol. In this episode with Lelia Gowland, we talk about how she got started in the unique niche she created for herself, her experiences with, and opinions on current Diversity, Equity and Inclusion trends, and, what her book is all about! She also references some AMAZING people in her book. Lelia’s and all of these other references’ contact details are listed below.

Welcome to the fifth episode of Matter of Fat: a body positive podcast with Midwest sensibilities! Co-hosts Cat Polivoda and Saraya Boghani highlight community voices with a lens on body size, body positivity, & fat liberation. This episode, Cat and Saraya update each other on what's happening in the Twin Cities and their lives during The Fat Dish, talk with their guest Andy Kuhlmann about their story as a matter of fat, and dive into the Dirt and Discourse. This episode was originally released on October 17th 2018. In the Fat Dish, Cat chats upcoming Pollen Midwest events, her shop Cake Plus-Size Resale’s birthday, seeing Nicole Byer, and being part of a panel for Matriarch Digital Media during Twin Cities Startup Week. Saraya tells us about her recent trip to Colorado, seeing Rupi Kaur perform, and being on a panel about Body Positivity & Fat Liberation. Upcoming local events include: The Big Fat Super Swap on October 20th from 1-3PM at the Nokomis Community Center in South Minneapolis. Also on Saturday, October 20th, the local chapter of Fat Girls Hiking is hosting a hike at Elm Creek Park Reserve. This episode’s interview is with Andy Kuhlman. Andy recounts the beginnings of their personal fat activism and co-founding the Big Fat Super Swap, shares a bit about their comedic background, expresses the woes of finding clothing to fit their body and sense of style as a non-binary, superfat person, and shares their love of Sumo on Japanese Public Television and The Adventure Zone podcast. In Dirt + Discourse, Cat and Saraya discuss Weight Watcher’s recent rebrand to WW ( or, “Wellness” that “Works” - quotes ours, not theirs). Saraya’s got questions about what identity they’re trying to sell with this rebrand and why. She encourages us to “follow the money”! Cat questions their true commitment to wellness and challenges us to recognize that if diets worked for most people WW wouldn’t be in business. (It’s truly one heck of a business model.)

Co-hosts Cat Polivoda and Saraya Boghani talk about attending Dangerous Fatty with Virgie Tovar presented by Flyover and going to the Minnesota State Fair. This minisode originally aired on September 12, 2018. Virgie Tovar’s Dangerous Fatty event at Gamut Gallery as part of her book tour for You Have The Right to Remain Fat. This event was presented by Flyover and sponsored by Cake Plus-Size Resale. (Shoutout to Haley from Flyover for her planning of the event!) Amazing artists, vendors and all-around greats included Meg Brown, Theo Nicole Lorenz, Shelby Bergen, Radical Health Alliance, & Cake Plus-SIze Resale. Also noteworthy - Saraya passed her KFAI board certification program!! That means Saraya can now be the primary sound engineer for our podcast. Learn more about volunteering and resources at KFAI.org. Finally, Cat and Saraya visited the Minnesota State Fair! Check out their Instagram post for fair highlights! They especially enjoyed the llama costume contest. (Check out some of the costumes in this article. However, none of them are on the level of this clever crabby llama.)

Episode 3: Simeon Talley Welcome to the third episode of Matter of Fat: a body positive podcast with Midwest sensibilities! Co-hosts Cat Polivoda and Saraya Boghani highlight community voices with a lens on body size, body positivity, & fat liberation. We check in on Twin Cities events during The Fat Dish, talk with our guest Simeon Talley about his background and story as a matter of fat, and dive into the Dirt and Discourse. This episode originally aired on August 14th 2018. In the Fat Dish, Saraya is still in a daze after seeing Jay Z and Beyonce’s On The Run Tour II and is excited to learn more about radio broadcasting and sound engineering. Cat shares her eager anticipation for Cake Plus Size Resale’s Fat Splash pool party and hints at a saucy promo photo shoot with Boudoir by Eve. Also in the Fat Dish, Cat mentions that Button Poetry is putting on a spoken word event featuring Rachel Wiley on August 26th at Icehouse in Minneapolis and Saraya mentions the Dangerous Fatty community art event and book reading by Virgie Tovar on August 25th at Gamut Gallery. This episode’s interview is with Simeon Talley, who is the Chief Connector and Event Producer with the content and event platform Flyover based in Iowa City, Iowa. Simeon shares his background and how he came to curate platforms for underrepresented and marginalized voices through fashion, politics, culture. You can check out Simeon’s TED Talk and Medium article by Kiva Bay. We explore definitions in the Dirt and Discourse! Saraya’s mom has a question on our use of the term “intersectionality”. While we break down the definition, you can learn more by checking out this primer from the Washington Post and check out a perfect, and unfortunate, example of white feminism with Chelsea Handler’s interview of Ashley Graham.
