109. Objectification, Empowerment & The Truth About Women’s Media - Mary Rose Somarriba
from Poise in the Noise · host Melissa Heiler and Erin Monnin
Women’s media is everywhere — but what is it actually teaching us? In this episode, we sit down with Mary Rose Somarriba, Editor-in-Chief of Verily Magazine, to discuss women’s media, objectification, empowerment & the cultural messages shaping how women see themselves. We unpack the subtle ways objectification shows up in both language & imagery, how modern media blurs the line between empowerment & exploitation, & why so many women feel pressure to constantly perform, present & perfect themselves. We also explore what it looks like to create media that respects women’s dignity, encourages depth & promotes a more thoughtful, intentional way of living. If you’ve ever questioned the messages you’re consuming or felt the pressure of modern media culture, this conversation will challenge, clarify & empower you to think differently.Keywords: women’s media, objectification of women, female empowerment, media literacy, modesty, dignity of women, feminist media critique, social media culture, women’s identity, intentional livingLike~download~subscribe~leave a review~share with your friends~all of the above!Follow us: @poiseinthenoisepod Erin: @flowering.at.his.feet Melissa: @homesandholinessEmail:[email protected]linktr.ee/poiseinthenoisepodSupport us on PatreonPromo Links:Crunchi Skincare & MakeupA Holistically Well Pregnancy Program - promo code for 20% off: poiseinthenoiseEpisode Sponsor:Arrayed in Gold - Etsy ShopArrayed in Gold - InstagramResources:@verilymag - Verily Magazine's Instagramverilymag.com - Verily Magazine's Website@maryrosesoma - Mary Rose's Instagram
