Welcome to Xtralindas The Podcast! This is a space specially created for all those who live in a larger body, who have been discriminated against or marginalized because of their weight, and who are looking for a place where they feel understood and supported. We want to create a community where we can share our experiences, our joys, and our frustrations, and where together we can find ways to fight against the stigma that surrounds us. So if you are someone who is interested in this topic, we invite you to join our community and listen to this podcast.
