Mel Greig recently wrote an article for Body + Soul titled Why I Finally Threw Out My Skinny Clothes (you can read it here) which resonated with many women.    You may remember the 20-year media veteran from that ‘Royal Prank Call’ in 2012 which triggered her battle with deep depression. This was followed by a divorce, she lost her mum to pancreatic cancer, battled endometriosis, but through it all, kept moving forward. She now campaigns for body positivity.    In this episode, Mel and host Felicity Harley unpack Mel’s article discussing the rollercoaster of weight loss, finding confidence in your skin whatever it’s size, and how to look in the mirror and truly love what you see.   WANT MORE FROM MEL?   To hear Mel’s full interview in all its glory, where she discusses how everyone can manage social media’s impact on body image, search for Extra Healthy-ish wherever you get your pods.    Follow Mel on Instagram @melgreig or check out her website, here.   WANT MORE BODY + SOUL?    Online: Head to bodyandsoul.com.au for your daily digital dose of health and wellness.   On social: Via Instagram at @bodyandsoul_au or Facebook.
