Hi friends! In this week's episode I speak about my own personal experience with my self-image from growing up with facial hair, acne, and my struggle with fitting with the beauty standard of Filipino and Western culture.
This episode was difficult to record because I acknowledged and accepted that I didn’t love myself growing up. Also, I realized how much our child traumas effect how we perceive ourselves up until now, as adults.
Here’s the article mentioned in the podcast from Business Insider about “11 Scientific Reasons Why Attractive People Are More Successful in Life”

I appreciate all of you for listening to the podcast and for your continuous support. Sometimes, I have second thoughts with the content I produce because of how vulnerable I feel in these solo episodes but, I thank you so much for taking the time to listen.
