UNpodcast 138: UNgood (Mindy Dillard) - Finding Our Hunger

“I am the poet of the body, and I am the poet of the Soul.” —Walt Whitman

This week’s guest is Mindy Dillard, an award-winning singer-songwriter and a body image activist who recently released her second full length feature album, How to Survive a Poison Apple, a folk rock song cycle and the soundtrack for her revisionist fairy tale one-woman show.

In this episode we discuss:

* How to use fairy tales to get to the root of your own story

* Are eating disorders the fault of psychology or culture? And which will help us recover?

* Why claiming the right to take up space is not about being beautiful, but feeling beautiful

And more!
