269. Let’s Get Triggered: Oprah, Ozempic, and Our Outrage
Manage episode 408155735 series 1031090
Today’s solo episode grew out of Oprah’s Weight Loss Special Shame, Blame and the Weight Loss Revolution that aired on ABC this Monday night. Because it’s network TV, only so much could be covered, which is why I created this episode to go deeper.
Most of the people having big reactions to Oprah's weight loss are those who’ve never struggled with their weight (and so don’t understand) OR those who have historically struggled with weight and haven’t yet found the peace they want with their bodies.
As someone who struggled with her body and weight for two decades, I know how sensitive it can be to be in a place where you’re struggling. Our culture is fat phobic and really hard on people in large bodies. I’m hoping this episode can help us unearth what’s really going on and why fat phobia is one of the last accepted prejudices.
The opportunities for us to be triggered are seemingly endless with these types of conversations. And yet, I believe that we shouldn’t let the fear of possibly triggering someone keep us from having these deeper discussions that can—over time—shift our perspectives for the better. Let's keep the conversation going...
