Welcome to another episode of Self-improvement Atlas: The Personal Science Insights Podcast! In today's session, our host, Marie Stella, delves into the intricate web of media's impact on our self-image, joined by the remarkable Melbourne based psychologist, Krysta Kors.

Krysta is far from your typical psychologist; her expertise spans a wide spectrum, encompassing education, community organizations, and medical clinics. She specializes in assisting individuals grappling with various mental health challenges, such as anxiety, disordered eating, trauma, and social difficulties.

In this episode, Krysta sheds light on the concept of body image—our perception of our physical appearance in relation to our self-esteem. She uncovers the significant role media representation plays in distorting these perceptions, leading individuals to chase unattainable beauty standards. Together, Marie and Krysta navigate the obstacles encountered on the journey to attain an ideal body image, exploring distinctions between self-esteem issues in teenagers and adults, and dissecting the impact of societal and cultural factors.

Tune in and embark on this insightful journey with us!

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
