IN CONVERSATION: Natalie Fornasier

Today, we are joined by a person who has influenced Zara and I more than any “Instagram influencer” or “YouTube vlogger” ever has. Her name is Natalie Fornasier, and she has 839 Instagram followers. Your eyebrows might be raised right now, and you might be wondering how a normal Sydney girl with a normal social media following could be so influential. Well, last year, Natalie sat down with Byrdie.com.au for a story titled “I’m 24 and Living With Advanced Melanoma—This Is My Story”. Natalie’s words and insights in that interview were what informed our very last segment of Shameless in 2018, and what pushed Zara to change her own relationship with sun tanning forever. Today, we sit down with Natalie, who is now 25, but still grappling with her stage four cancer diagnosis. We talk about friends, finding love, and what you can do to spread the word. We have chosen to forgo an episode sponsor today, and have dedicated the episode to Call Time On Melanoma.
