In this episode, we sit down with Linda to explore her journey into womanhood. She reflects on how her faith shaped her experience of sexuality—both positively and negatively—and how, despite floating through her teenage years with a sense of ease, she now recognizes what was missing: a deeper connection to her body.

We also discuss how media and societal expectations for women have evolved over time. While Linda’s generation may not have been as directly impacted by social media and beauty standards, she shares how she now feels pulled into society’s expectations of what it means to be a beautiful, powerful woman—and questions whether that truly leads to happiness.

For younger listeners, this episode offers a powerful opportunity to pause and reflect on your own relationship with your body. If unrealistic media standards and outside pressures didn’t exist, how would you feel about yourself?Imagine how much easier it would be to grow up without constantly comparing yourself to filtered images or expectations of perfection. What would it be like to simply be at home in your body, without judgment?

This conversation is a reminder that self-acceptance is a journey—and that true embodiment isn’t about meeting an outside standard but learning to trust, love, and live fully in your own body.
