Episode 11: How You See Yourself

(CW: body image, body weight, self-esteem issues)  This week, we decided to talk about something a little more personal and a little more serious: our struggles with body image. Growing up in America while also being brought up as Indians definitely put us in a tight spot in terms of living up to certain standards of beauty set either by society or by our family. Especially as females, we found that it was harder to ignore physical changes in our bodies or think of them as attractive. We hope that listening to our experiences helps even one person feel less alone. Your body is beautiful and you should celebrate it whenever you get the chance - but we realize that that’s not an easy process.
