Description

Alice Cooper, a mental health & body confidence advocate joins me for Episode Two of Conversation Matters. In a really open and honest conversation, we discussed the following:

- Body Confidence & how "you can think yourself into a bad head-space". Alice explains her theory around how "self-acceptance is far more important than external acceptance".

- Social Media in 2020 and the intensity of social pressure - We discuss posting your good days vs posting your bad days and how social media is just an edited/filtered highlight reel of a person's life. Are we obsessed with comparing ourselves to others? The concept and value of privacy - is it completely lost in society today? Where will the resolution come from? Honest influencer's vs education.

- Alice discusses her own personal experience with negative attention and nasty comments & abuse online, and how she overcame this and deals with it today.

- The current fitness industry and the lack of regulation attached to the industry.
