“The perfect body does not exist, as there are no two humans on this planet that are the same. So you have to aspire to be the best version of yourself and not someone else.”

In this episode, I interview the inspirational Felicity Hayward. Felicity is a model, activist and a true ambassador for body positivity.
 
She was first scouted to be a model whilst dancing to Diana Ross in an East London pub, which says a lot about her personality! Since then she became one of the first plus-size pioneers in the UK promoting body diversity in many high-end fashion editorials. She’s also done campaigns for leading brands such as ASOS, Adidas, Mac Cosmetics, TK Maxx and many more. She’s also been on Channel 4’s acclaimed body positivity program naked beach. 
 
 And we had an absolute blast. I’m in absolute awe of Felicity, not only for what she’s done in her modelling work but her infectious personality and the passion for helping more women to accept their bodies. In fact, we discuss at length how their no such thing as the perfect body, as there are no two humans on this planet that are the same. 

We cover a lot of topic as per usual, including some pretty shocking behaviours in the fashion world, the one that stood out was Felicity being asked to go to the prestigious British Fashion award and being given only one outfit to try on whilst other women who were a smaller size got to have the ability to choose different outfits. 

I don’t want to give any more away so please enjoy the fantastic Felicity Hayward.
