Phillippa Diedrichs is a Professor of Psychology and body image and mental health expert. She works at the Centre for Appearance Research and has spent the last 20 years studying body confidence - what influences how we think and feel about how we look and what we can do as a society to create an environment where we can accept and love our bodies.

She also works with brands and organisations within the beauty and fitness industries to help them think about what they put out into the world, and how they can be part of the solution to help create a world that is accepting of bodies of all sizes.

This series grew so much bigger than we ever expected it to be thanks to the amazing insights our guests gave us - so we decided to release some of those expert conversations in their entirely. Each Thursday, you will hear an in depth conversation which will drill down into different themes which we will explore across the eight weeks of this series. This is the first of those conversations and we hope you love it.
