Lauren Geertsen is back on the show to celebrate the release of her new book, The Invisible Corset: Break Free from Beauty Culture and Embrace Your Radiant Self. Holly and Lauren discuss how to wade through cultural noise to reconnect to your own intuition. Here's what's covered:
- Lauren's new book, and her goal to end the cycle of female body hate
- How cultural expectations make us just as uncomfortable as traditional corsets
- How Lauren's healing journey opened her eyes to mass manipulation, including mass manipulation in the beauty industry
- How marketing and sales tactics in the beauty industry mirror common dynamics of psychological abuse
- A historical glimpse into ever-shifting beauty trends
- How to differentiate between your true self and your false self
- Identifying what beauty routines honor (rather than suffocate!) your true self
- Why we must look beyond the body positivity movement
- Healing diets vs. intuitive eating: finding your happy place
- A powerful tool to make important decisions through the lens of freedom
