UNDER THE INFLUENCE: Cherie Louise

On today's show we're joined by the amazing Cherie Louise. The 28-year-old from Melbourne is a model, writer and disability advocate who isn't afraid to stand up for what she believes in. At just six years of age Cherie sadly lost her leg to cancer and just last year she was cast into the media spotlight after vile trolls bullied her for merely revealing the fact she's an amputee. We talk all things modelling, high school, falling in love, dealing with fu**wit bullies online, fighting back and how Cherie is changing the media landscape for the better. You can find Cherie on Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/cherie.louise/ Cherie also has a Patreon account where she shares written articles and stories about her life and advocacy: www.patreon.com/cherielouise The episode touched on issues surrounding sexual assault. Cherie spoke about the article below, which is an extremely important and interesting read: https://www.npr.org/2018/01/08/570224090/the-sexual-assault-epidemic-no-one-talks-aboutSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
