Taking her story of body dysmorphia, OCD, and chronic pain on the road as a one-woman comedy show was both terrifying and empowering for Kate Huffman. Along with her experiences as a Hollywood actress, it encouraged her to be certified in body positivity and life coaching and she is now making an impact in others’ lives helping them accept themselves for who they are.
Don’t miss these Highlights:
- Understanding body dysmorphic disorder and how it can create invasive constant thought about how you perceive yourself to look
- She developed anorexia at the early age of 10 because of her dream to become an actor and believing she had to have the perfect body
- How filters and apps are perpetuating this view of the body and ability to digitally enhance instead of acceptance
- Being influence to action by a TED Talk with Bernie Browns about having the courage to share the story of your heart
- Mental hacks to help people overcome fear when taking the stage, and being interviewed on tv or podcasts.

Her world-toured one woman show, I’M TOO FAT FOR THIS SHOW, tells her story of twenty years of eating disorders, OCD, chronic pain, and body dysmorphia.
