As Jamie continues on her own journey to become more body positive, we are reminded daily that this is a shared space and there are SO many different stories and journeys. Body positivity is more than just about size...it is also about race, gender, etc. This week we have the amazing Raffela Mancuso on the podcast. Raffela is a mental illness activist and diet culture DISRUPTOR who uses social media to center people who are living in marginalized bodies, while also sharing about her own personal journey. She’s trying to be compassionate with herself during this pandemic, and she’s hoping you can do the same. She’s all around an amazing human and we are so stoked to have her on!
