Pretty Privilege: The Perks and The Perils
Listen now
Description
Have you ever stopped to question the power of pretty privilege? How it invisibly weaves itself through the tapestry of our daily interactions, creating advantages, discomfort, and everything in between? Sit down with us and our guest, Taylor Card, as we shine a light on this intangible phenomenon, reflecting on personal experiences of feeling 'unattractive' and the winding path towards self-confidence. In this candid conversation, we don't shy away from the nitty-gritty. We explore the manipulation and discomfort that can sometimes be hinged on pretty privilege, and look at the flip side - the empowerment born from personal change. We share our thoughts on the societal pressures around beauty and aging, and underline the importance of self-love. As we challenge the narrative around aging, we invite you to join us in championing the power of investing in oneself and making mental health a priority. In the final leg of our journey, we consider the generational consequences of privilege. We reflect on the societal shifts that have begun breaking harmful cycles, and take a look at the rise of different types of people in popular media. With the advent and ubiquity of social media, a platform has been created for stories to be shared, journeys to be told. Tune in, as together, we celebrate the power of self-love and making personal journeys a priority. This episode promises an intimate exploration of self-image, and a hearty conversation on the multifaceted concept of pretty privilege. It's a dialogue about us, about you, about the world we live in - a world that's changing every day. Join us in the conversation, won't you? Follow Our Hosts!
