I’m sharing 30_ examples today. Plus I talk about the levels of fatphobia. TW: Ton of horrific examples of medical fatphobia, I let you know when that starts.

Is Weight Loss a Mindset Issue?

I held the belief that I was fat because there was something "wrong with my brain" for a long time. Weight is a manifestation of trauma in the body, isn't it? If I had my life together, then I'd be thin, right? I will talk about how those beliefs are so prevalent in the self-help and online business world. Plus, I answer questions on how to tell people to stop talking about weight and diet culture without alienating them (or losing them as your customer!).
