Tall Stories with Instagrammer Abby Dufficy
Abby Dufficy had hated being 6'1 forever. In her early 40s, dismayed at the lack of fashion content for women of her age and height, she created @mytall40s on Instagram. It was from here that she started forming connections and real-world friendships with other tall women, and - to her surprise - finally started falling in love with her height. We discuss what it's like to feel chronically shy in a very visible body, and how the desire to fade into the background can feel so regrettable once you've made peace with it.

Tall Stories with England Netball International Ama Agbeze
As captain of the England netball team, six-footer Ama Agbeze reached the PINNACLE of tall girl success. Her combination of height, skill and unwavering perseverance earned her a gold medal at the commonwealth games and an MBE for her services to netball.  Ama talks frankly about how she has has struggled to come to terms with her height away from the netball court, and also offers some great advice for coping with career knock-backs and sharpening resilience. We also discuss what parents should do if their children are showing sporting promise (is it ok to be pushy?) and how tall people can very quickly become unpaid supermarkets workers.
