Summary

We're covering the ABCs (activism, body image, and cancel culture) with actress/activist/inclusivity advocate Jameela Jamil. We discuss how anyone, whether they have a platform or not, can use their voice and make a difference, deep dive into how the internet and influencers have affected our body image and what we can do about it, and break down cancel culture. Jameela also shares her experience having an eating disorder and how it affected her love/sex life, and tells us why her current relationship is so healthy. In the spirit of Jameela's I Weigh community, our listeners share what defines them outside of their physical appearance, and WAP is a consistent theme throughout the episode. We hope you enjoy!
