Description

Is it Ample? Aaron and Glenys talk to Alissa Sobo, the creator of Ample, the first app that rates businesses specifically on their accessibility and inclusiveness towards marginalized bodies (fat, trans, people of color and more). In this episode, Alissa talks about her origin story of being fat-shamed at the doctor when she was pregnant and why she decided she needed to create a review site for people in marginalized bodies whose needs are just not being met. She also explains how this amazing resources works and how we can all help build on it. This is something all our listeners can help contribute to and we can't wait to introduce you to Ample! BONUS CONTENT: stay tuned to the very end to listen to our first bonus content!   Show notes:  Check out Ample  HAES Care for Diabetes starting soon - get on the mailing list!   More from Aaron  More from Glenys
