Co-hosts discuss weight stigma with Broquelynn "B" Shepard, M.S. (she/her), a doctoral candidate in counseling psychology studying the experiences of fat and plus-sized Black women. Together, they explore the impact of societal expectations on body image, body neutrality versus body acceptance, and the impact of media representation, including the serious lack thereof in Barbie. The conversation also taps into topics related to the influence of caregivers in maintaining weight stigma, the role of fashion in shaping perceptions of body diversity, and the importance of creating spaces that embrace the wholeness of our bodies.   Find B on Instagram: @dearfatsista     We gratefully acknowledge, Kevin MacLeod's (incompetech.com) music, "Basic Implosion" Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
