Happening Now: The Interview Behind the Viral Obesity Talk

Original posted at obesity.news/ on Sep 18, 2025

Friends,

Last week, Dr. Robin Pashby’s viral talk “What We Carry” cracked open the silence around what it really feels like to live with obesity. Tonight, we’re going deeper.

In just 15 minutes, the premiere of my full interview with Dr. Pashby begins on YouTube. This is not the talk itself, this is where she unpacks the stories behind it. We talk about the scale’s power, the “fire escape” moments, the sticky notes we carry in silence, and what it actually takes to separate weight from worth.

Here’s the VIDEO to join live and be part of the discussion:

Bring your questions, bring your stories, and don’t just watch, jump in the chat. Share your own fire escape story, type “worthy” if you needed to hear that word tonight, and connect with others who get it.

I’ll be there live with you in the comments. Let’s make this conversation loud enough to drown out the shame.

See you in 15,

Dave
