The first time I took photos of Charys for Women of My Generation was in February 2019. It was a pretty shy and insecure woman I had in front of me. Therefore, it was pure joy to revisit Charys and to see a confident and outspoken woman.

Today you'll hear Charys speak about her journey towards self acceptance. We also discuss online fatphobia, people's obsession of the word 'healthy' and reclaiming fat as a neutral description. To see the Instagram posts mentioned in the episode (and the size inclusive brands Charys loves) please visit her Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/babyguerrilla/
