    Laura Adlington: Body Confidence, Bake Off Fame, and Overcoming Diet Culture
    Nov 25 2024
    Welcome to The Life of Bryony, where we explore life’s messier moments. GUEST: LAURA ADLINGTON In this empowering episode, Bryony Gordon sits down with Great British Bake Off alum and advocate Laura Adlington to discuss body image, self-acceptance, and living life unapologetically. Laura shares her journey from struggling with diet culture and disordered eating to becoming a vocal champion for body neutrality and inclusivity. She talks openly about the challenges of existing in a society that prioritises appearance over health, the impact of social media, and how fashion can be a tool for self-expression. From rejecting extreme weight-loss surgery to finding joy in life’s everyday moments, Laura’s story is one of resilience, growth, and refusing to live a half-life. Laura’s message is clear: everyone deserves respect and representation, no matter their size. This episode is a celebration of individuality, courage, and the importance of embracing yourself fully.
