🎉 Welcome back to Born This Weigh! We’re Kari and Lisa — two moms, 150+ pounds lighter, still untangling what it means to love ourselves in a world that never missed a chance to body-shame us.
This week’s episode dives into:
🐙 Ursula the Sea Witch — why The Little Mermaid’s villain might actually be the OG fat femme icon (and the only “representation” we got as kids).
👗 Clothes Shopping Trauma — shrink-wrapped torso chic, mall meltdowns, and why accessories were the only things fat girls could buy while friends tried on jeans.
💄 Fat Femininity Gatekept — from pink feeling “off-limits” to cosplaying pretty for a night out, we talk about what it’s like when softness, daintiness, and desirability never feel fully on the table.
If you’ve ever rolled your eyes at Disney villains, sweated through a popcorn shirt, or wondered if you were less feminine because of your weight, this one’s for you.
✨ Hit follow so you don’t miss new episodes every week.
✨ If you like what you hear, leave us a quick rating or review — it helps other people find the show (and makes our day). ⭐️
💛 Ursula was right. Popcorn shirts were wrong. And somehow, we’re still talking about it.
