What is Fatphobia?

Simply put it's the fear or dislike of fat people. As a society we have been told what beauty is and subsequently what your worth is based on that. In this episode we dive into how we can break the cycle and redefine what beauty really is.

Our guest today is Victoria Welsby. She went from being homeless, abused with self esteem that was achingly low into a courageous (and confident) boss lady and body image activist she is today.

When she's not changing the way women view themselves you can find her at University of British Columbia in her role as an Adjunct Professor.

She is the founder of In Bed With Betty, and co founder of WOC talks, both amazing movements disrupting their traditional paths (and having fun while doing so). We chat all things mind-related, from mental health to meditation to the experiences of being a WOC in a world that is a lot of times exclusive. We also chat entrepreneurship, what the hardships and obstacles are that so many of us face. Anita gives some tips on how to continue to do you!

Our guest today is Dora Kamau. Don't ask her what she does in one word or sentence because it can't be done! Dora likes to say " I am one dope soul sharing my light and helping others find theirs" and we couldn't agree more.

Our conversation flowed from mental health in the black community, the difference between mental health vs mental illness, what it means to act truthfully and honestly within your life, and how much wellness is too much wellness. It's no surprise we were able to cover so many topics with this self care connoisseur.

Tune in and hear some amazing insight on what you can do to shed light on underrepresented and marginalized people within the mental health community, as well as some tips on navigating your own journey. Hopefully this can serve as a reminder for you to have some of these conversations in your own life.

We managed to snag some time with Linh Truong, owner of The Soap Dispensary and it’s sister store Kitchen Staples. Both shops are the first of it’s kind here in Vancouver, and carry almost everything you need to live a zero waste lifestyle (or even if you're taking small steps towards it)

With a BFA in painting Linh spent most of her adult life doing jobs to support her art. Having always been a conscious consumer, she naturally fell into this type of work.

We talk all things environmental, conscious consuming, and of course her journey with entrepreneurship! If you haven’t checked out The Soap Dispensary run don’t walk!

We recently took a trip to the island and managed to snag some time with one of our favourite artists Rachel Saunders. We were delighted to discover that not only is she an insanely talented visual human she’s also incredibly funny. Don’t let the laughs fool you, we were able to have a very authentic and vulnerable discussion.

The conversation flowed so easily we managed to discuss everything from manifestation, leading with your heart, and of course business.

Rachel shared the tools she is using to navigate not just business, but more importantly life. All the while highlighting the importance of empathy.
