What a light topic to cover… just body image and body standards. No, we definitely don’t have a lot of learned issues about this!!

JKJK after all we are just two white American girls who grew up during the rise of social media. So basically we (like you we assume) are scr*wed and thats ok! So this episode is all about unpacking those body images and standards in the context of moving abroad. Cause, guess what? Every country has its own standards, and that impacts how you feel also.

Lili shares how being a curvacious gal in Spain was not for the weak. Taylor dishes something insane statistics she learned.
