Episode description

In this week's podcast, Em and Alex are joined by writer and influencer Callie Thorpe. Callie's content focusses on travel and wellbeing, but it didn't start out this way. Callie is plus-size, and over the years has been scrutinised for her appearance: namely over a 'controversial' Cosmopolitan magazine cover where she was featured. Callie talks about recovering from the backlash of the cover, the fear of letting women down by stepping out of the limelight and how she rebuilt her confidence, brick by brick. Callie explains how she rediscovered herself by living a joyful existence, and why she wants to share this joy online.
