Navigating medical discrimination is exhausting and demoralizing. Dismantling weight bias in healthcare systems is the ultimate goal, but that is slow work. Leave us a comment with any tips you’ve found to be helpful for navigating weight discrimination in healthcare settings.

“I don’t think being fat is a bad thing anymore. Being fat is just part of who I am.”
On our first episode of season three, our guest Rebecca Alexander (@portlandrebecca) did a reading of her book, A Kids Book About Body Image. It’s a beautiful book that carries a hugely important message we all probably could have used when we were growing up.
To listen to her full reading, check out Season 3, Episode 1 of #nobodyaskedforthis in the link in our bio. To buy the book for a kid in your life, head over to @akidsbookabout!

This is the first Monday night in 5 weeks with no book club. I’m missing these people and our vulnerable, authentic, and funny conversations. From the get Kendra and I were impressed and obsessed with this group we got to hang out with every week.
I’m grateful to each of them for their commitment especially considering they were raising children, attending grad school, moving across the country, planning a wedding, searching for jobs, growing a human, and working full time in a global pandemic.
Having this space once a week to show up as I was and have my anger and fears validated was deeply meaningful in a time of social isolation. Thank you to each of you and especially to my partner and cohost in good trouble @kendrajoc whose secret weapons are gentleness and encouragement.
Until next time.
Love and Light JK Solidarity and Resistance,

Song Parody Video Coming Soon... ish! Name that (original) tune in the comments!
I never trust a diet plan
They won’t free me
So I burn the last restrictive trend
I make it look oh so easy
