The Body Protest

Hi Body Protesters! It's the season finale, and of course, we had to go out with a bang. We are talking to Lena Dunham, Writer, Director, Actress - and of course, Creator and star of the HBO hit Girls which Nadia and I both rewatched during the start of the pandemic and nearly 10 years on since it's debut, it still resonates just deeply. This conversation is very close to our hearts - we're so grateful to Lena for taking the time to speak to us. Lena is such a powerful story teller and trailblazer. We talk to Lena about:

• Chronic Illness
• Weight Fluctation
• Fatphobia
• Cancel Culture
• The Film and TV Industry
• Sobriety

We hope you enjoyed this season! We love making this podcast and your feedback means so much to us, so please don't forget to rate, comment, and subscribe!

Hey Body Protesters!

This week we're joined by writer and activist Scarlett Curtis - Co-founder of The Pink Protest and one of the OG driving forces behind the Body Protest Podcast, so it felt very fitting to have her back and chatting with us! Scarlett shares with us her story of chronic pain in her teen years, learning to trust her pain receptors again - and her reconnection to self with the help with some help from i-phone games, cold swimming and yoga. We hope you love this episode as much as we do - Scarlett is a true earth angel and we feel so lucky to get to share her breathtakingly beautiful and honest body journey.

Hi Body Protesters! This week we speak with the founders of Sick Sad Girlz Rosa and Kenzie. They tell us about the cosy corner of the internet they’ve created with nearly 20,000 people sharing their experience of SSG life, and the importance of community and friendship. We discuss accessibility and the power of making your space as soft, safe and easy for you as humanly possible. We chat about about the freedom of conversation and openness - How healing simply naming your pain can be, and how they encourage you to tell them "where it hurts". We adore these women, and know you will too - they give us huge Big Sister Energy, and we really think everyone could do with some more of that in their lives.

Featuring the gentle gurgles of baby Tenn, Bebe and Jessie talk with us about: 

Radical honesty, acting and body image, fatphobia in the film industry, sibling relationships and influence, trauma, grief, hormonal and body shifts in one's 20s, generational growth with body image issues, motherhood.

Hi Body Protesters!  

We speak with our first straight male guest, an NHS surgeon and author of Food is Not Medicine, Dr Joshua Wolrich. We talk with Josh about weight stigma, food insecurity and disordered eating, and Josh tells us why some of today’s popular diets are what he calls ‘nutribollocks’. STRAP IN.  

Also kudos to our pal Laura Thomas who Josh credits for being the catalyst to learning more about weight stigma and diet culture. You can listen to our conversation with Laura here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/43XIA3TX0v5e7op36qky8x?si=oNaPdDA_RL2b9HGNkZiubw

Hi Body Protesters!  

We have another HUGE episode this week – we speak with Professor Bryn Austin, ScD, is an award-winning researcher, teacher, and mentor. Bryn is a Professor of Social and Behavioral Sciences at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and Professor of Pediatrics at Harvard Medical School and in the Division of Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine at Boston Children's Hospital. She also is the director of Harvard STRIPED – the Strategic Training Initiative for the Prevention of Eating Disorders. 

We talk about the cost of eating disorders, the need to change the narrative on eating disorder stereotypes and how just naming the stereotypes serves to perpetuate them. And then on a more positive note, we talk about how to create policy change through that magic combination of story-telling and science. 

There’s a bit of background noise – sorry about that!

Hi Body Protesters!

So…it’s official, we are B A C K and are launching S3 with a bang! We speak with the one and only Virgie Tovar – author, podcaster and OG body positivity advocate. We are such big fans of Virgie’s and when you listen you will hear why. She oozes energy and is so smart – her analogy game is next level. Diet culture is a scrub – need we say more?! Whew! We are still on a high from speaking with her.

Also! We are introducing a new segment that we think you are going to love and to accompany it we have set up a Google Drive so you can read the papers we chat about.
