In this episode I am joined for a very lively chat by Marisa Crossan. Invited with her husband to take part in the Channel 4 show Around the World in 80 Weighs, she talks about her experiences and what she learned. The programme is still available to watch in the UK here: Watch Around the World in 80 Weighs | Stream free on Channel 4

We cover weight stigma, body confidence, Marisa's own struggles with weight and food and what it was like to be on the telly!

It's a warm and eye-opening listen.

Today we talk to Mel Ciavucco. Mel is interested in all kinds of eating distress and disordered eating, body image and weight stigma, especially advocating for people in larger bodies. It's a conversation which provides fascinating insight and challenges our own bias and attitude.

Working as an Integrative Counsellor in private practice, she is a published writer, with an article in Therapy Today on fatphobia (June 2021 edition). She writes about disordered eating, weight stigma, class, and more on her website: www.melciavucco.com
