Description

What started as a trip to a high school art show quickly turned into a gut-punch of a realization: our girls are growing up under impossible pressure.

In this raw and powerful Powerback® episode, LauraAura unpacks the three heartbreaking themes that kept surfacing in the students' art—fear of the future, safety at school, and most loudly: body image. From sculptures wrapped in chains to titles like “Chained” and “Drowning in Tears,” the message was clear: self-worth is under siege.

This episode is an unfiltered reminder that confidence is not just about pep talks—it’s a radical inside job. One that starts with the words we say to ourselves, the energy we choose to absorb (or not), and the way we model self-love for the next generation.


In this episode:

“Beauty is not defined by symmetry or conformity, but by honesty, vulnerability, and lived experience.”

- Jordyn W., Student at Greencastle Antrim High School
