[cw: eating disorders & body shame] Podcaster and Voice Actor & Coach Tawny Platis on bi invisibility, coming out, and body shame [part 2 of 2]

NOTE from Masha: As these episode are being released, the world is dealing with the coronavirus crisis. Because all episodes in the season were recorded well in advance, this is not discussed on the show. I hope that you will apply the same themes that we discuss throughout the Bold Adulting podcast to coping and supporting both yourself and others in your community (including the global community) --

• reaching out to people (virtually)
• figuring out what you want to make progress on and making a plan
• being open about what you're going through with the people who you feel comfortable sharing with
• looking for evidence-based resources
• remembering that you are not alone

If you want to connect with me to discuss what you're going through (about this or anything else), please feel free to email me or find me on Facebook (send me a message letting me know you found me through the podcast).

I also strongly suggest connecting with other caring and compassionate people through the Facebook group Distance Resistance (which I don't run but I participate in) which is about staying connected even while we have to stay apart. You can also find a lot of information there about getting help or giving help -- this is a is moment to come together.
