In this powerful episode of SheCentre: The Female Podcast, we are joined by Natasha Karuhanga, who bravely opens up about her painful experiences with weight-based bullying. From a young age, Natasha faced relentless body shaming that deeply affected her self-esteem and mental health. She recalls being humiliated for her weight, feeling isolated, and struggling to find friends. This continued through her secondary school years and even into university, where she was often the target of cruel comments and exclusion.

Despite these challenges, Natasha shares her journey of resilience and self-discovery. She talks about how she blocked out many painful memories, only to be confronted later by classmates who remembered her as a bully herself, which led her to reflect deeply on her past behaviors. Natasha discusses the importance of supportive friends and family, the role of daily affirmations, and her faith in helping her heal and build self-confidence.

Natasha, who is also an administrator, has found herself passionate about making sure that the people she crosses paths with feel good about themselves because of what she has been through. Her story is a testament to the strength it takes to overcome bullying and the importance of a supportive community. She emphasizes the need to confront bullies, seek help, and practice self-love.

Tune in to hear how Natasha turned her painful experiences into a source of strength and how she now inspires others to embrace their true selves, regardless of their body size.
