This week, I'm joined by the Dr. Asher Larmie AKA The Fat Doctor. Asher is a transgender, non-binary GP and fat activist who campaigns for an end to medical weight stigma. I really loved this conversation and am so excited for you all to hear it. We cover things like;

  • Why you can't control your child's body and why you shouldn't want to
  • Advice on how you can raise kids who are resilient to body shame
  • What to say when your doctor wants to weight you and you don't consent
  • How they are working to disrupt weight stigma in the medical profession
