Description

In part two of my conversation with academic and activist Dr. Oli Williams, we discuss the work he does via his art collective, Act With Love. The mission of AWL is to translate Oli's research from complex ideas on weight stigma and inequality into artwork that conveys a simple message. In this 'sode we cover: ✨How health is not defined by weight ✨ The problem with using BMI as a measure of health ✨ How weight stigma worsens health outcomes ✨ The moralisation of bodies ✨ Weight bias in the medical community ✨ The lived experience of ‘obesity’ ✨ Social movements and resistance Show Notes {Oli on Twitter | Instagram} {Act With Love} {Resist and Retweet} {Steph Liddle Shop | Instagram}

Join Registered Nutritionist and Wellness Advocate Laura Thomas, PhD for conversations with game changers. Laura talks to people in wellness, foodies, bloggers, entrepreneurs from cool brands, creatives, nutritionists, doctors, body positivity people, mindfulness experts, and anyone else who is shaking up the wellness world, to find out how they stay on top of their game – and to help you do you, but better. It’s not all headstands and courgetti though - she and her guests aren’t afraid to dig deep into the darker side of wellness and WILL call BS on weird, faddy trends, that don’t have any legitimacy or scientific merit.
