Jess and Sarah are so excited to share this episode with Allison Lang, amputee, advocate for body inclusivity and model. The girls share a raw and authentic conversation about what it feels like growing up with physical differences, the impacts of bullying, and how the lack of body diversity in media impacts young girls. Allison shares her experience as an amputee in the modelling industry, problems with the lack of representation in media, disability tokenism, and self acceptance. Finally, Allison shares her insights about ableism and why it's so problematic. This episode is the first of many in a series about diversity & inclusion.
