Imagine stepping into a world where your body is no longer the target of society's unsolicited advice. That's the sanctuary we're building on today's SteelRoses podcast with the dynamic Maggie Birge-Caracappa, an LGBTQ+ activist and fat liberationist. Maggie's personal journey intertwines with a broader discussion on the systemic discrimination fat individuals face in aspects of life many take for granted, like healthcare and housing. We peel back the layers of societal bias, highlighting the intersectionality of fat liberation with other civil rights movements and advocating for a future where everyone, irrespective of size, is treated with dignity and respect.
We strip away the glossy veneer of diet culture, revealing its corrosive impact on our health and happiness. We wrap up with an empowering message inspired by Tim Gunn, advocating for a life of authenticity, where owning your narrative is the key to freedom. Join us for heartfelt conversations that celebrate diversity, encourage self-acceptance, and challenge you to live authentically by your own standards.
