Emotipod: Arts & Emotions

Dissatisfaction or discomfort with one's appearance - we all have a little bit, but the beauty and slimming industries as well as popular culture feed the body shaming and 'othering' that can lead to very serious dysmorphic disorders like anorexia, addictions, extreme plastic surgery, etc.
Host Frances talks to peri-menopause, body image and confidence coach Tamsin Broster about how she's helping women - and her own children - feel happy in their own skins.

Emily Breeze, "noir pop chanteuse" of "dystopian loungecore," "“the tomboy rockabilly lovechild of Nick Cave and K.D. Lang with Scotty Moore on guitar," (Tom Robinson) - you get the idea - talks about the stories she weaves with her intriguing mixture of sweetness, gothic menace, tragedy and humour.
This episode contains some swearing.
