In this bonus episode, Melissa reflects on the conversations with the first 3 guests: Dr. Joy Cox, Courtney Marshall, and Ayana Habtemariam. There were 3 major themes that stood out: the importance of curating the media we consume; the care and compassion in an anti-diet, weight-inclusive approach; and the power we have to make significant changes in our individual lives and communities.

Where can you listen?

Hearing Our Own Voice is an anti-diet, weight inclusive podcast that centers Black stories and experiences. I have conversations with Black health and wellness professionals and fat activists who have taken a weight-inclusive approach to their work. My goal is to uncover the lies and myths that get sold to us, but more importantly I want us to explore how we can filter out the cultural noise and begin to hear our own voice .
