About this listen

 How do you stop making yourself small in a world that keeps telling you to shrink? If you’ve ever wished for the confidence to just show up in the world as your fullest self, then you need to meet Megan Jayne Crabbe. You might know her as Body Posi Panda, the Instagram force of nature whose honest posts on body acceptance, eating disorder recovery and radical joy have helped millions find a bit of peace in their own skin. On the journey to self acceptance, Megan has been to some very dark places; including hospitalisation at 14 for an eating disorder before finding her way back—and she’s painfully honest about just how tough that journey remains. We’re talking the insidious grip of diet culture, untangling ourselves from the “pretty tax,” sex, wanking, dating and what it really means to stop apologising for who you are. Expect candour, wisdom, a few laughs and the realisation that being “your biggest self” is not about fixing yourself, but questioning what (and who) made you play small in the first place. Megan’s new book, We Don’t Make Ourselves Smaller Here, is out now. WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU Got a question or a story to share?
