On today's show—originally, recorded on February 22—John and Andy discuss the pervasiveness of the "cure" narrative among health and wellness advice, and how many folks trying to help can inadvertently perpetuate ableist practices.
Our guest is Lissie Cox, who discusses with John the rampant fatphobia among movement or wellness spaces.
