Ep 14 - Fat Fertility with Nicola Salmon The Anti-Diet Club Podcast

Our guest on the show this week is fat fertility coach, Nicola Salmon.

She shares with us the influence her PCOS diagnosis had on her from a young age, how anti-fat bias shows up in our healthcare system and what choices are available to people at higher weights who want to grow their families.

Nicola is a fat-positive fertility coach and author of “Fat and Fertile”.

She helps fat folks navigate getting pregnant in a weight-obsessed world and advocates for change in how fat people are treated whilst accessing help with their fertility.

Nicola uses her unique fat-positive framework to support people in finding their own version of health without diets, advocate for their bodies, relearn how to trust their body, and believe in their ability to get pregnant.

This is a must-listen episode for anyone in a bigger body navigating IVF and/or pregnancy.
