Guests: Tracy Moore of Cityline and Meredith Shaw of Breakfast Television
Fat. Flattering. Big boned. Curvy. March 8 is International Women’s Day and to mark it we’re breaking down the negative ways we talk about women’s bodies. Most women are familiar with body shaming — none more so than women in the public eye. Meredith Shaw and Tracy Moore join us to talk about their own self-acceptance journeys, how they handle nasty viewer comments and whether they wish they could stop talking about it altogether.
This episode was produced by Rani Sheen, JP Fozo, Julia De Laurentiis Johnston and Paulo Marques
