In this special cross-promotional episode of Amplified, Ellen speaks with Lily O’Hara—public health academic, body liberation advocate, and chair of the 2025 International Weight Stigma Conference. Lily shares her personal journey into weight-inclusive public health and how her lived experience has shaped her approach to ethical, liberation-focused health promotion. Together, they discuss how weight stigma continues to show up in public health messaging, what true inclusivity looks like, and the critical need for change. Lily also gives listeners a behind-the-scenes look at the upcoming conference, what makes it unique, and how people from all backgrounds—researchers, practitioners, activists, and those with lived experience—can benefit from taking part in the conference.
