Today we’re talking about confidence, self-image, and the idea of “looking good". Does looking good make us feel good? We’ll look at how appearance affects confidence, from bad hair days to clothes, weight, and all the messages we pick up from social media, TV, school, and the people around us.

We’ll also talk about why accepting ourselves can be so hard, and what confidence really means - on our own terms!
