## Caption

One artist's "fat candles" featuring #transinclusive, #genderfree and #bodydiverse figures were shamed... but she has a message for the trolls who wished her an early death. ⁠
⁠
Owner of #candle company #CTOAN, #JodyannMorgan "prepared for hate like this" when she began her innovative brand. The nasty comments and persistence of #fatphobia continues to encourage her to challenge the stigma over weight. ⁠
⁠
The positivity that surrounded her brand since its debut in 2021 is attributed to her mission statement, "to create fat art that inspires and empowers."⁠
⁠
Morgan stays focused on empowering people by "filling a gap in the market with candles that celebrate bodies like mine and the people I love."⁠
⁠
She believes "fat people should be given access to health care that sees us as more than our weight, jobs that hire us without considering our size, and a society that sees us as full human beings."⁠
