## Resource

In today’s episode of Bite Back with Abbey Sharp, I’m joined by creator and storyteller Sarah Nicole Landry, better known as The Birds Papaya. After going viral for a major weight-loss transformation, Sarah shifted the narrative by speaking openly about the complex, messy, deeply human realities that followed. Together, we dive into what it really means to rebuild body respect, navigate online criticism and fat-phobic trolls, set boundaries in a hyper-visible world, and raise kids with a healthier sense of self and body confidence.
