Buckle up and get ready as I delve into a variety of topics regarding physical beauty. We'll take a look at our society's obsession with physical beauty and the consequences these impossible beauty standards have had on us. Let's face it; this fascination regarding physical beauty and body image isn't a recent phenomenon; it has been around for centuries, crossing borders, and has affected men and women alike. The realization of this podcast has come about by my own experiences having to deal with society's perverse notion of physical "perfection" and researching an array of topics that have intrigued me over the years.

play

02/22/23 • 17 min

In the summer of 1613, a minor courtier died while imprisoned at the Tower of London. At first, Sir Thomas Overbury's death was considered to be the result of illness, but three years later the testimony of an apothecary's assistant emerged, stating that Overbury was poisoned. All fingers pointed to the Earl and the Countess of Somerset.

Let's look at the infamous beauty, Frances Carr, Countess of Somerset. Her life was surrounded by scandal, and she is remembered as a murderer and a witch!

Welcome, friends!

Fitness culture, specifically surrounding the gym and weight training, has increased in recent years. But with this interest has come the rise in a gym culture that can be as obsessive and restrictive as the fitness trends of previous decades, potentially even worse due to the negative impact of social media and fitness influencers.

In this episode, we're going to take a look at the toxicity of gym culture. How can we navigate the toxicity of gym culture, block out the ever-growing noise of social media fitness influencers and develop a healthy relationship with fitness?

Let's find out!

Welcome, Friends!

We have made it to the end of March; how does time fly?

This week, we're taking a look at the documentary The Illusionists by Elena Rossini. Elena traveled to eight countries during a seven-year span to document the detrimental effects of Western beauty standards on women and increasingly on men and children.

We're going to talk about breasts!

In this episode, we're going to dive headfirst into an article written by Cora Harrington, Do Bras Prevent Breast Sagging?

You'd be surprised at how many people search google for an answer.

Beauty Unlocked the podcast - EP - 55 - Let's be honest, Fatphobia exists
play

07/30/21 • 27 min

Welcome, Friends!

You might not realize this, but the world celebrates people of a particular body type, while there is systematic discrimination against people who are bigger-bodied or plus-sized. It's a fact that fat-shaming and fatphobia are normalized, accepted, and tolerated.

In this episode, we look at an article written by Stephanie Dolgoff on the harmful effects of fatphobia.
