Talking to your kids about body diversity

Kids come in all shapes and sizes, but unfortunately, kids' athletic wear does not. While clothing options for adults have grown in recent years, there are still fewer plus size options for kids. Pam Luk, founder of Ember & Ace, talks about bringing more awareness to body diversity, how to talk to our kids about size differences, and her new athletic wear brand for plus size kids.

About the Guest
Pam Luk is the founder of Ember & Ace, an athletic wear brand for plus size kids. Growing up playing sports, she learned firsthand the importance of finding active wear that fits. After a career in project management, Pam wanted to ensure her daughter and other children are able to be comfortable in the clothes they wear for sporting activities. She went after that desire and launched a fashion line exclusively for active plus size kids. In June, Pam launched a Kickstarter campaign that was fully funded in just 17 days to help launch Ember & Ace!
