EP 8: Our Body Image vs The World (of Social Media)
from Am I Home Yet? · host Olie
Social media has a way of feeding into our needs but also digging into our insecurities, especially our body image. Pinky and Olie (@pensandmatcha) talk of times when beauty standards were limited to their little communities and how it has changed after the boom of the Like button. We share our experiences with negative and positive body image (influences from adult figures and the opinions from the ones we trust to changing ourselves for ourselves) and discuss the body positivity movement (is it working or are there things unaddressed?) Learning to build a positive body image, as we’ve learned, isn’t a ‘one-size fits all’ deal. If you have any experiences, thoughts, or topic recommendations, send me a DM at IG: @amihomeyetpod Sound and music from: www.salamisound.com/ mixkit.co
