About this episode
What does beauty mean to you? Should everyone just accept the perception of beauty? Should you get a nose job or any other cosmetic surgery if you feel it will make you prettier?
Today Christina explores the topic of body image, beauty standards, and cosmetic surgeries. She also shares how cosmetic surgery has been an empowering choice for her.
In this episode, they talk about:
- The contradictions of body image and beauty standards
- Christina's struggle with body image issues
- Encouragement to do whatever makes you happy, boosts your confidence, and makes you feel good
- Stories to demonstrate how powerful and destructive our thoughts can be when it comes to our self-image
Memorable Quotes:
"You are not defined by your physical body. You don't need cosmetic enhancements to be beautiful. You don't need them to love yourself or to be loved. But you can also get them and still love yourself."
"As long as you are healthy what is on the inside matters so much more than what is on the outside."
"Your mentality dictates your reality, whatever you're thinking, whatever you're focusing on. That is what you are creating."
