If your New Year's resolution is to lose weight - maybe watch this episode first! Mal and singer-songwriter Maddie Zahm discuss a range of topics from purity culture in the church, to body image and weight loss fixation, and how all of these affected Maddie's journey to coming out and dating women. We hope this episode reminds you to be kind to yourself, to embrace your body, and that there will always be another donut.
