In Depth with fat positive influencer Katie Parrott

In Depth with fat positive influencer Katie Parrott

Social media influencer Katie Parrott uses her online presence to normalise our view of larger bodies and to talk about fatphobia, mental health, public health, food, fashion, and anything else that comes to mind. Katie spent some time with our host, Sam Ikin, talking about her journey to body acceptance. It wasn’t always easy for Katie to shrug off the societal pressure to subscribe to the thin ideal, or to get where she is now: a joyful and powerful equal opportunity advocate for people of all shapes and sizes.
For help with body image issues or eating disorders call the Butterfly helpline on 1800 ED HOPE that's 1800 33 4673 or go to https://butterfly.org.au/ for online support and resources.
