Fat Lot of Good

23. Public speaking, staying strong and surviving separation.

This week I am joined by the dynamic duo of Helen and Maya, the women behind the London community arts project Featured in Fifteen - think TED talks, but set in a pub with a diverse range of creatives and individuals with a story to tell.These fabulous women talk about their friendship, why it is so important to share our stories and how their relationship with their bodies has changed over time. Helen shares why she wants to focus on strength training for her physical and mental health and what it is like to be a twin. And Maya discusses her hysterectomy, her background and the women in her family.These are two very inspiring women and I know you'll love them as much I do. Enjoy!You can find out more about Featured in Fifteen <a href="https://www.featured15.co.uk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.featured15.co.uk/</a> and follow them @featuredfifteen on Instagram.

A funny and honest podcast about our bodies - what we think of them, what we put in them, what we do with them and what it really means to be a fat person in a thin-obsessed world. Helen Thorn, comedian, one half of the podcast duo Scummy Mummies, loud mouth and fashion blogger asks a range of experts, comedians and blatant show-offs about their relationship with their bodies and how and why this has changed over the years.
