Getting Comfortable with the Contradictions with Lena Dunham

Hi Body Protesters! It's the season finale, and of course, we had to go out with a bang. We are talking to Lena Dunham, Writer, Director, Actress - and of course, Creator and star of the HBO hit Girls which Nadia and I both rewatched during the start of the pandemic and nearly 10 years on since it's debut, it still resonates just deeply. This conversation is very close to our hearts - we're so grateful to Lena for taking the time to speak to us. Lena is such a powerful story teller and trailblazer.

Om Podcasten

The Body Protest is a podcast hoping to uncover the hidden journey of the relationship you have with yourself. Exploring the individual obstacles that makes everyone’s journey of self-love complicated and occasionally treacherous, we hope to unify people with the common understanding that the struggle to love ones self, is very real. We hope to explore themes of race, toxic masculinity, eating disorders and general pressures put on us by the media and how these factors altered the journeys of individual guests. With Nadia Craddock, Body Image Researcher, and Honey Ross, plus sized writer and activist - we combine the wonderful duo of scientific facts and research with a more emotional lens, to provide a well-rounded and informative look at the very personal, and often commodified journey of self-love PRODUCED BY THE PINK PROTEST Hosted on Acast.
