Previous Episode: The Man in the Arena

Welcome back to another episode of Exceptionally Average; the podcast that shares the real and inspiring stories of "normal", everyday people. Today I'd like you to meet Merissa Forsyth; a woman on an incredible mission. She's the inspirational founder & CEO of the Pretty Foundation, and today she wants to share her story with you. In 2012, Merissa quit her high-flying corporate career in marketing to launch a charity that focussed on the early education and prevention of body image issues in young girls. We talk everything from how the heck you even begin to start your own charity, to the scary stats that young girls face in today's society. Want more? Of course you do! You can follow @pretty_foundation or find them at prettyfoundation.org (I can highly recommend the Charlie's Tales books if you have a little miss in your life). And as for me, you can find me @exceptionallyaveragepodcast on instagram.Got a story for me? Slide into my DMs, or shoot me an email [email protected]
