    Description

    This week on All Fired Up, we waded into the media sh**storm which erupted after a Sports Illustrated bikini show dared to put models who looked like MOST WOMEN on the catwalk. Hysterical headlines urged the madness to stop, as seeing actual people is apparently GLORIFYING OBESITY, according to the head of the Australian Medical Association. I spoke to the incredible Sarah Harry, fat activist and owner of one of these unglorified bodies, to get her take on the situation. Our take? - Glorify, Glorify, CELEBRATE, and push back on ridiculous messages like these!

    Welcome to the All Fired Up podcast, with your host Louise Adams!  Louise is by nature a mild mannered clinical psychologist, but her alter ego – a FIERCE and fearless anti-diet crusader – is taking over! Louise specialises in helping people recover from disordered eating, and she’s COMPLETELY OVER trying to help people when the culture we live in is utterly sick, toxic, and screwed up when it comes to food, exercise, health, and body size.  Louise cannot for a second longer take the rampant injustice of a society obsessed with thinness and health. She can’t STAND how fat people are being treated like second class citizens. She is LIVID about the way weight science is being sold to make a buck off human misery.  And she’s SO OVER the diet bulls**t that she’s shelved her own introversion and started a podcast!  So welcome to All Fired Up!, where Louise delves deeply into diet culture and blows it the hell up! Each week we’ll meet brave and fascinating anti-diet warriors who are also fighting for equality, justice, and freedom. Join us, and get All Fired Up! about building a better world!
