56: The Guests I Cancelled On with Emily Haswell
Listen now
Description
I stumbled across Emily Haswell on TikTok, and I knew immediately that we would be friends. Listen to hear Emily’s TikTok about wearing the “circus tent with pockets” that led her to say (as a 33-year-old plus-sized woman), “I will NOT be influenced again by what the skinny-girl influencers say we MUST have!” She has started a de-influencing movement that I’m totally here for. Join us to laugh and learn more!   Show Highlights: ●      How Emily got more followers when she started her honest, de-influencing movement ●      Why KC hashired Emily as creative director for the Struggle Care podcast ●      Why KC and Emily decided to cancel on having the well-known, Emmy-nominated Netflix stars, The Minimalists ●      How we critique The Minimalists’ philosophy because it spreads shame and doesn’t hold the value we are looking for (and who really does the dishes in their house anyway?) ●      How we have reacted to influencers with harmful messaging on health, hoarding, domestic tasks, etc.    Resources and Links: Connect with Emily Haswell: TikTok and Instagram Connect with KC: Website, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook Get KC’s book, How to Keep House While Drowning We love the sponsors that make this show possible!
