On today’s show, model, author and activist, Charli Howard joins Bobbi to talk about making changes in how society views women.

Early in her modeling career, Charli was unable to book modeling jobs because she was not a "typical" sized model. Even though she fit into a size 6, the industry at large rejected her, and because of that she did everything she could to try and fir their standards.

After a shoot that went awry, her agency dropped her. Charli then took to Facebook to air her grievances about the industry at large, and her post went viral. This moment not only changed everything for Charli but helped make the modeling industry a little bit better. She used her platform to create The All Woman Project, a charity which goes into schools to educate about body image and mental health issues. Charli also recently released her first book Misfit, which you can buy where ever books are sold.
