In this episode, I’m joined by Maria Pendolino, a successful voiceover artist and passionate advocate for disability and fat liberation. Together, we explore the transformative journey of breaking free from labels and societal expectations—whether it’s the roles we inherit from our families or the body standards we’re pressured to conform to. Maria's story is one of resilience, overcoming the challenges of psoriatic arthritis, and defying industry barriers during the pandemic to build a thriving career.
We also get into the deep-seated effects of fatphobia, childhood bullying, and the harmful messaging around body size and health. I share my personal struggles with bulimia and body image, while Maria talks about her journey towards self-acceptance, embracing the power of fat liberation, and advocating for underrepresented voices in media.
This episode is an empowering reminder that our worth isn’t defined by our achievements or appearances, but by our strength, authenticity, and the love we show ourselves. Tune in for an eye-opening conversation filled with humor, wisdom, and the inspiring message that every challenge can be a stepping stone to something greater.
