Watch: My trick for handling social anxiety at events

I promised I’d make more videos, but speaking off the cuff makes me so nervous! So I’m sharing a trick I recently learned for helping myself AND other people feel more comfortable in social situations. Click through and watch it on Instagram for closed captions/subtitles.

I’m a photographer, writer and fat acceptance activist. Dive deep into body image, fat acceptance, Health at Every Size® and more with my free weekly Body Liberation Guide.

Every Monday, I send out my Body Liberation Guide, a thoughtful email jam-packed with resources on body liberation, weight stigma, body image and more. And it’s free. Let’s change the world together. Subscribe »
