The Live Your Best Fat Life Podcast

Hey y'all. You ever meet someone and just know you need to get to know them better? Well, that was exactly the feeling I got when I (virtually) ran into Athia. And thank goodness, because this bright and shiny person is a real gem! In this conversation, we get into the writing that made me need to make friends with her, the promise of ascension with the achievement of thinness, and bang the gong for our need and desire to hear all the fatstories. Athia shares so much depth of thought, critical analysis, and candidness around fatness, dieting, being the elephant in the room, and everything in between you can't miss this one. May you enjoy listening to it at least as much as I did recording it!

What is The Live Your Best Fat Life Podcast?

Join host & liberation facilitator, Tiana Dodson, as she examines the many layers of living a multiply-marginalized life. From embracing abundance and bodily joy as a fat person in a fatphobic world to examining the subtle ways ableism touches so much of our day-to-day lives, each episode acknowledges the ways systems of oppression are bound together and seeks an alternative path toward a more just world for every body.
