S2, Ep 8 - Eden Elgeti

And here we are again, at the end of another season, and what an absolute corker of a conversation I have for you. Eden Elgeti shared with me the moment she started to notice other peoples relationships to their bodies, we explored the fact that she had no recollection of things said to her as a child, and yet how her body has now become something people feel entitled to an opinion on, and she gifted the simplest of statements that, as you'll hear in the record, completely flawed me. Like, how have I been forgetting this main fact, for an entire life? Please do have a listen. And finally, I shared with her the things I do in restaurants when deciding what to eat. Something I've never told anyone, and something I feel shame about, every time I hear our conversation back.

If you have any thoughts following this conversation, or any of those in Season 1 and 2, please do give me a shout on Instagram or Twitter, or drop me an email at howtobreathepodcast@gmail.com

Season 2 has been such a joy to bring to you, and I really hope you've enjoyed it as much as I have. I'm going to take a bit of a break now and work out what future the podcast has, in light of some of my hopes not quite playing out the way I imagined. Isn't that always the way! We'll be back. :)
