Listen "138. I Didn't Want To Look Polynesian"
Episode Synopsis
I used to HATE my curly hair. 😞For years, I straightened my curly hair every single day. I thought my curls were messy, unruly—something to be fixed.But the truth? My rejection of my curls was just another way I was rejecting myself. 💔I was rejecting my Polynesian identity without even realising it. I had been taught—like so many of us—that our features, our hair, our natural selves weren’t “good enough.” And that lie kept me from fully embracing who I am.In this episode, I’m sharing how I unlearned the belief that my natural hair wasn’t good enough and what it taught me about self-love, worthiness, and embracing ALL of who I am. Because how many of us are still at war with parts of ourselves, trying to fit into a version of beauty that was never meant for us?Tune in now, Queen—this one’s for you. 🎧✨My beautiful friend Cat’s Life After I Left event - https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/life-after-i-left-tickets-1253924625309?aff=erelexpmltJoin me in Destination Self Love - https://elishatamasi.simplero.com/
