05/31/24 • 40 min
In the first episode of the "Not a Before Body" podcast, host, Kim Stacey, engages in a compelling conversation with non-diet fitness professional Christine Chessman. They delve into the concept of thin privilege, exploring how societal biases favour thinner bodies and impact individuals in various aspects of life. The discussion also touches on Oprah's influence in the wellness industry and her complicated legacy regarding body image, we talk about weight loss drugs and the nuance behind them. In this episode, as always, we emphasise the importance of self-acceptance, encouraging listeners to embrace their bodies as they are and to wear the damn shorts (even if you are above a size 18!), let's continue to challenge the notion that only certain body types deserve to feel confident and comfortable in their skin.
