I really enjoy the honesty and self-reflection Ronald puts into this podcast. I’m a relatively new listener and so I’m getting a lot out of going on this journey from the beginning… I love the male perspective on this issue. Thank you!

Ronald Young Jr. is vulnerable and honest. He shares his own story in a way that feels real and relatable, never polished or performative. I really appreciate how he digs into the intersectionality of obesity: how weight connects with race, culture, and social expectations. Don’t get excited for a solution for any of this as the podcast isn’t about quick fixes or advice. it’s about understanding and empathy. Listening to it feels like being invited into an honest conversation that challenges how we think about bodies and self-worth.
