The other day, Cara messaged Asher to say:
"I've been slowly pushing my doctor to forget that I'm fat and there as been some growth. At my last appointment she was scheduling me for an MRI and there is a mandatory weight question. She told me about it upfront, said she would not weigh me but that she needed a number to put in there. She asked me what I thought she should write, I gave her the answer, and that was that. It felt like a win. It felt like I had taught her something and that she valued the lesson."
So of COURSE Asher begged Cara to come on his podcast. Who wouldn't?! You can find Cara on Instagram or through her Linktree
