EP. 175 – Kara Richardson Whitely (The Gorgeous Agency)

Legislative efforts in the US are starting to recognize that people can face discrimination and bias in the workplace based on the size of their bodies. In this episode, host Janelle Wrigley speaks with Kara Richardson Whitely, author of ‘Gorge: My Journey Up Kilimanjaro at 300 Pounds’ and founder of The Gorgeous Agency (https://thegorgeousagency.com).

They discuss the complex trauma that can arise from weight stigma, how companies and law firms can create inclusive cultures for all body types and sizes, and Kara's path to becoming an outdoor adventurer and champion for body diversity.
