About the episode

In this SAFE SPACE episode we're going to find out what it's like to experience fatphobia as a bigger bodied person when Jess sits down with Milo Hartill to hear her experience of living with discrimination, prejudice and weight stigma. Millo is an actor, model and advocate for ‘fat liberation’ and body acceptance, and while she is joyful about her size, her relationship with her body isnt straightforward. Milo openly shares some of the darker moments and challenges she’s faced as a bigger-bodied person in the entertainment industry and the pressure to conform to societal beauty standards. There is so much we can learn from Milo about self-acceptance and body respect, regardless of how others perceive you. Is there somebody you'd like to share this episode with?
