EP21 - The Journey of Self-Love with Jes Baker

For this episode, I got to chat with Jes Baker who is the author of Things No One Will Tell Fat Girls and Landwhale. We chat about the journey that is self-love and also dive into fat politics. To find Jes online check out her website: themilitantbaker.com or her instagram @themilitantbaker. Jes Baker is a positive, progressive, and magnificently irreverent force to be reckoned with in the realm of self-love advocacy and mental health. She is internationally known for preaching the importance of body liberation, hard conversations, strong coffee, and even stronger language. Jes burst onto the body positivity scene when she created her own ads mocking Abercrombie & Fitch for discriminating against all body types—a move that landed her on the Today Show and garnered a loyal following for her raw, honest, and attitude - filled blog missives. When not writing, Jes spends her time speaking around the world, working with plus size clothing companies, organizing body liberation events, taking pictures in her underwear and attempting to convince her cats that they like to wear bow ties.
