Nomi uses the example of Adam and Eve and modern media to show why so many women feel shame and guilt about their bodies.
Stories like Adam and Eve have painted women as sources of temptation and blame, reinforcing body shame.
Nomi connects these themes to current societal pressures, exploring how they shape women’s self-image and what steps can be taken to change this.
Nomi then speaks with her client Makeda, who celebrated her 60th birthday with a boudoir session. They discuss how embracing one’s body and sensuality at any age can be a powerful act of self-acceptance.
Makeda shares her journey of challenging stereotypes on aging and femininity and feeling empowered in her own skin.
In the "Ask Nomi" segment, Nomi explains how she protects the privacy of her clients' boudoir images to keep these special photos secure.
