Summary

Hello everyone and welcome back to Private Parts, the podcast where nothing is off limits.

It’s Friday and we are back with another amazing guest!

Today, Jamie is joined by creator, comedian, model and educator, Fats Timbo. Fats shares her incredible stories, from growing up with Achondroplasia and the struggles she's faced as a little person, to writing her inspiring debut book Main Character Energy, to even appearing in British Vogue!

As well as this, she candidly discusses being bullied for being small, how she is striving to change people’s perceptions of little people and how she doesn’t interpret her disability as a negative.
