This week, Guerdley and I are unpacking our ever-shifting body and beauty “standards.” We’re talking about being bullied into loving our bodies, pinpointing where our obsession with appearance even came from, and so much more.
We get into:

(12:10) Tracy + Guerdley’s personal definitions of beauty
(15:00) Social media’s role in pretty privilege
(34:45) Embracing aging + challenging the pressure to look young forever
(43:30) Toxic positivity + being bullied into self-love
(49:15) Embracing filters for self-expression
(55:45) The ebbs and flows of body image
