In this episode of Let's Talk, Yvie Jones explores an often-overlooked topic: the experience of body image in people living with disabilities.

To help us understand, Yvie is joined by Juliette McAleer, a writer, researcher and disability advocate from regional Queensland.

Juliette shares how she navigates the complexities of living with physical and psychosocial disabilities, all while recovering from an eating disorder.

Yvie and Juliette discuss how ongoing medical issues, the system of care, and prejudice around difference can impact body image. Juliette shares how she learned to challenge societal standards and cultivate body kindness even when feeling good about her body was especially challenging. She also talks through how allies can better support disabled bodies with genuine inclusivity, understanding, and respect.
