Welcome to another episode of the Me Skills Podcast, where we lean into self-love and great ideas that build a better life.
In this episode, Kelly & Tish chat about online trolling and fat-shaming. They share personal experiences, discuss the surprising lack of kindness online, and analyze the insecurities driving trolls.
Tish talks about her choice to leave Instagram and TikTok for what she thought was a “safer” space – YouTube, while Kelly emphasizes responding to trolls with kindness.
They chat about toxic diet culture, the importance of making food choices that support personal well-being. And they also touch on body autonomy, self-love, and moving past insecurities.
(Note: this episode, as usual, contains swearing. 😉)
