Hi, my name is Claire and I'm the host of Big Bones, Thick Skin. This is a podcast that was born from my struggles with being a plus-sized person in a fat-phobic world. And these struggles were only amplified by my work as a plus-size actor in the entertainment industry. As I've been on a personal journey to start loving my body, I found that I wanted to surround myself with other plus-size artists, as well as anybody else with marginalized identities. I want to give them space to share their stories so we can hear what their experiences are like and how they handle them. This is all with the hope that we can help each other to find solutions to make entertainment more inclusive.
My conversations are with folks who identify as plus-sized, queer, black, indigenous, people of color, trans, disabled, gender non-conforming, the list goes on. I can't wait to share these stories, and these people, with you. Stay tuned for Big Bones, Thick Skin.
