glowing up is a SCAM | ep. 9

‘Glowing up' is everywhere on social media, promising that if we just ‘try hard enough’ and change every part of ourselves, then we can be worthy of love and acceptance. False.

In this episode, we challenge the toxic pressure to constantly improve our appearance and discuss why society’s idea of ‘beauty’ is flawed.

Through sharing our personal experiences, we examine why the relentless push for ‘self improvement' can damage our mental health and self-worth. Plus, we dive into how companies are actually capitalising on our insecurities, while selling us solutions to problems they helped create in the first place.

Glowing up is a scam, and this episode will leave you accepting yourself as you are, right now, because every version of you is enough.
