Anupa Roper – Miss Sparrowlegs tells a story of differences and acceptance

from Creativity Found: Finding Creativity Later in Life · host Claire Waite Brown/Anupa Roper

Anupa Roper has always been on the smaller side, and from a young age experienced shaming just for being a skinny person. ⁠While grown-up Anupa was busy being a teacher and raising a family, she knew she wanted to help young people to NOT feel bad about their bodies. ⁠Writing Sparrowlegs was not how she initially envisaged doing that, but as we hear all the time on this podcast, the path is rarely straight and clear. ⁠In this episode we find out how Anupa found her voice and about her continuing work with words and positive body image for young people.⁠CreativityFound.co.ukInstagram: @creativityfoundpodcastFacebook: @creativityfoundpodcast and Creativity Found groupYouTube @creativityfoundpodcastPinterest: @creativityfoundTwitter: @creativityfounResearched, edited and produced by Claire Waite BrownMusic: Day Trips by Ketsa Undercover / Ketsa Creative Commons License Free Music Archive - Ketsa - Day TripsArtworks: Emily Portnoi emilyportnoi.co.ukPhoto: Ella PalletSupport the showFollow @CreativityFoundPodcast on InstagramWant to be a guest on Creativity Found?
