Episode Summary

My chat with a friend about Vinny Welsby's Fierce Fattie

Episode Notes

TRIGGER WARNINGS: Abuse, O-word, biohacking and my disordered body building behaviours, derogatory use of the word, "fat"

This week on the podcast I have a chat with my friend Chavonne about Vinny Welsby's book, Fierce Fattie.  I did something I rarely do and just had a chat with my friend, no discussion questions, no intense preparation, just a good old-fashion chin wag!  We laughed, we got reflective and hopefully we provided you with things to think about.  

In this conversation I chat with Chavonne about:

• Chavonne's new podcast adventure
• Initial overall thoughts about the book
• What we liked about the book
• The value of The Life Audit
• Cake and why we're hungry now
• The connection between the TedX talk and the book
• How watching commercials can wreck havoc on our body liberation journeys
• Brain trenches
• The subtlety of diet culture
• The humour in the darkness
• Life lessons that impact our body liberation work
• What we will take away from this book
• Reading this book through a lens of current events
• Who we recommend this book to
• Body or food grief

Keep reading everyone!
