Can I Have Another Snack?

Today I'm talking to the brilliant Jade Elouise, fat liberationist and mental health practitioner. Jade explores body image through their art, writing and poetry, and is the co-founder of Fat Lib London, an inclusive community space for people in fat and otherwise marginalised bodies.

In this episode, we cover:
πŸ‘‰ The death of the body positivity movement - we talk about what attracted Jade to the BoPo movement in the first place, and discuss how it has been co-opted by capitalism and no longer represents a safe space for fat bodies
πŸ‘‰ The difference between body positivity and fat liberation and the intersections with other liberatory politics
πŸ‘‰ How Jade and their co-conspirators Simran and Niki are creating a safe and nurturing community for fat folks through Fat Lib London
πŸ‘‰ Plus, as always, what we're snacking on atm

What is Can I Have Another Snack??

Can I Have Another Snack? podcast is an exploration of appetite, identity, and bodies. We talk about how we feed ourselves and our kids (in all senses of the word!), and the ingredients we need to survive in diet culture. We’re sitting with the questions: who or what are we nurturing? And who or what is nurturing us? Hosted by Laura Thomas - anti-diet nutritionist and author of the Can I Have Another Snack? newsletter.
