In S3 Ep 2, Catri Barrett speaks to Becky Young, founder and director of the Anti Diet Riot Club; a rebel community fighting body shame, fat phobia and diet culture. 

 

Catri and Becky explore:

• Becky’s journey with body image struggles that led her to create the Anti Diet Riot Club

• The problem with finding a sense of identify with the way that you look that is so rewarded in our society

• Diet culture: the historical origins and how it has evolved from the heroine chic to the trends of today

• The problematic purification of food and labelling what you eat as ‘good and bad’

• Changing your mindset: How to separate your sense of self-worth and happiness from your appearance

• The life lessons Becky wishes she'd learnt at school: how to fail, accept mistakes and to challenge the media you consume
