Weight bias in health care does so much harm. If you're afraid to go to the doctor, I understand entirely. ⁠⁠I was too, but I'm thankful I faced my fears because it turns out I had skin cancer. During this episode, I share not only my experience but also my raw emotions and fears. As a plus size woman, it was a lot to process needing surgery on my face. But I'm so much more than a pretty face! I hope my story encourages you to make that appointment you've been putting off because you're worthy. ⁠⁠We're ALL worthy of good health care! ⁠⁠
