Imagine a world where body size doesn't matter? Where everyone feels like they belong. Where we can all show up, exactly as we are, where we can thrive and reach our full potential? For people who are fat, curvy, or plus-size - a world like this simply does not exist. How can we create a world where fat and plus-size people feel safe to be our best? I’m Andrea Westbrook and this is the question I set out to answer with the Curvy Culture podcast. Grab your favourite drink, put your earphones in, find somewhere cosy and join me each fortnight as I chat all things related to being fat!
