This transformative project, made into a web docu-series, creates a safe space that dissolves shame by speaking personal truths to the powerful external and internalized pressures we face to conform to unrealistic body standards.

The Concept
Body Stories is a collection of authentic anecdotes about diverse experiences of living in a human body. These narratives touch on deeply personal memories of families, tattoos, religion, social media, sexuality, fatphobia, medical conditions, body size, and the struggle for self-acceptance.
It features 25 different storytellers who each tell their own stories, in their own words, some of them for the very first time. Body Stories gives us tools to free our bodies and minds from the grip of commodification and perfectionism.
