Ever been caught in an uncomfortable situation just because you're in a larger body? Want to find places where you can be comfortable without the fear of judgment? Our guest for today, Nyemade, shares her experiences that led her to join the team of AllGo, a Yelp-like review app designed specifically for fat people. Born out of her and AllGo founder, Rebecca's, struggles to find non-fat phobic doctors and other services, AllGo aims to create a world where people of all sizes can be comfortable.
Nyemade takes us on a journey from her early years in Liberia, refugee experiences, and her eventual move to the US. We discuss her vision for AllGo and the potential it has in not only providing a much-needed service, but also in combating the societal stigma that fat people often face. We delve into the revenue streams for the app, the significant differences between AllGo and the National Plus Guide, and the promising future of AllGo.
Our conversation goes deeper as we explore AllGo's potential in promoting mental wellness and self-advocacy. Nyemade enlightens on how the app can support inclusivity, and help users to stand up for their needs in uncomfortable situations. We also touch on societal pressures around body weight, health, and the judgment and misunderstanding that follow. Finally, we take a brief detour into the world of kink, discussing how online platforms like Fetlife can assist in exploring sexuality. Tune in and get ready to see the world through a different lens.
