Fearne Cotton
About this episode

Megan spent a long time hating her body - and then, just three years ago, she discovered the body positive movement and her life changed.

In this live interview with Fearne, she describes how she took that message to Instagram, how she deals with the haters (both online and in her head) and found her happy place.
