126 - The Substance, women, body image and ageing

from Jacked Girl University · host Aimee Bartolo

The Substance (2024) is more than just a horror film, it’s a chilling reflection of the violence women inflict on themselves in the pursuit of self-worth. In this episode, I explore how Coralie Fargeat’s film serves as a powerful metaphor for the societal pressures surrounding ageing, beauty, and belonging.  I examine the real-life impact of these standards and invite you to question the conditions you’ve placed on your own worth and what that’s costing you.

Not just to survive, but to come back stronger, clearer, and more aligned.This isn’t motivation.It’s what happens after the breakdown, when you’re trying to put the pieces back together and make it mean something.If you’re in a season of uncertainty, burnout, or reinvention — this show is here to walk with you.We don’t just talk about getting through the hard times.We talk about who you become because of them.
