Episode 188- Fat at Work Stories

327 people have completed my workplace anti-fatness survey and shared their stories. In today's episode, I am revealing the stats on what percentage of fat folks have experienced anti-fatness at work, which marginalized group is affected the most and what types of anti-fatness are commonest. Plus we have a ton of powerful and painful stories - therefore there is a massive TW on this episode as some things are hard to hear.
