#142 - Ever felt like ‘If I just looked prettier, life would be easier?’ Or maybe everyone else has better hair, better teeth, and a better body? And why can’t I have that too? Today, Louise & psychotherapist Stephanie Therapy, in partnership with Sol de Janeiro, discuss the pressure we all feel to ‘glow up’ and how this pressure and desire are often rooted in something much deeper: the wound of not feeling ‘enough’.

The pair discuss:

The story behind Sol de Janeiro & the celebration of the Brazilian Culture
Body image and the pressure to look a certain way (+ the pressure to conform)
The filler revolution
The connection to childhood and the wound of ‘not enough’ and ‘validation’
The fine line between making personal changes that make you feel good versus changing for external validation
The challenges of projecting the best version of oneself in the dating world
What self-care really means
The healing power of true connection in relationships, beyond superficial appearances
An Inner Child Exercise and
The power of rituals to start to connect with your body.
