About Virgie Tovar

Hi, I’m Virgie and my entire life is about ending weight-based discrimination and anti-fat bias, and helping to create a world where body diversity is celebrated - not feared.

Yes, that’s me ^

Here’s a seemingly circuitous note that actually explains everything about my Substack:

I love running a small business, and every single dollar that comes through my business (yes, including the paid subscription side of this newsletter) goes toward continuing to do the work I live for: writing about how to end weight discrimination, helping people in larger bodies thrive, teaching companies how to make the workplace more accessible, helping future doctors and psychiatrists unlearn bias, and more.

Right now I’m in a moment of professional transition. I’m trying to build more freedom for creativity, inspiration and rest.

As a solopreneur, this means figuring out what I have time and capacity to do because each hour I spend doing one thing is an hour spent not doing another. Do you remember learning about this in high school economics?
