Join us for First Friday at Current Wellness! We will be hosting a film screening of “Your Fat Friend” (popcorn included!) and following that with a guided discussion. You won’t want to miss it!

“Your Fat Friend” is a documentary directed by Jeanie Finlay that follows Aubrey Gordon’s journey from an anonymous blogger to a bestselling author and podcast host of “Maintenance Phase.” The film delves into themes of fatness, family, and societal attitudes towards fat bodies. It explores Gordon’s personal experiences, her relationship with her parents, and her advocacy work aimed at combatting anti-fat systems. The documentary is both empathetic and revealing, highlighting the complexities and challenges of living in a world often hostile to fat people​​.

Cost: $18
