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 »

My Seattle photography office is where I spend most of my time. This is where some of my most precious things live, where my cat Blue hangs out, where I edit photos and post to social media and hold remote client photo reveals. Here’s a tour.

LISTEN: Lindley on the Fat Face Feelings Podcast (with Transcript)

Hi friend, When I was more active in the Health at Every Size® community, and constantly speaking up for fat people and fat patients in healthcare provider groups, people would often message me privately and tell me how grateful they were that I was fighting for them.

Listen: Lindley on Living in a Larger Body with the Understanding Body Matters Podcast

ByLindley Ashline November 4, 2021November 4, 2021

I’ve had the honor of being on a number of Australian podcasts, and every time, I wonder the same thing: What do they think about my American accent?? More importantly, it is very cool to have the opportunity to speak virtually all over the world about body acceptance and fat activism, most recently with the…
