Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we sit down with Mary Godek, Vice President of Member Education and Viktoria Krasteva, Health & Wellness Chair of the URI Panhellenic counsel to have an open conversation about body image. We discuss how it’s shaped by social media, gym culture, photo editing, and mental health. Together, we explore the patterns that influence how we see ourselves, how to recognize negative triggers, and what steps we can take to build a healthier self-image. Plus, Mary and Viktoria guide listeners through a practical exercise to revamp their social media feeds — turning them into spaces that uplift rather than undermine self-esteem. This is a reminder that you are so much more than what you look like. Let’s learn how to celebrate our whole selves and cultivate confidence from within.
