Description

The Fat Joy podcast is a joyful rebellion against anti-fatness. Each episode is a conversation between host and Professional Coach Sophia Apostol and another fat person about how to flourish in our fatphobic world. We’re exploring the harms, biases, and oppressions we’ve experienced while living in a world that marginalizes plus-size & fat bodies and promotes the lies of Diet Culture. But most importantly, we’re sharing how we still dare to have the audacity and courage to reach towards joy and live our best lives while advocating for collective fat liberation & body positivity. And, at the end of every episode, Sophia reads you a poem. Topics include: body acceptance, self-love, fat activism, body positivity, fatbulous, anti-fatness, anti-diet, diet culture
