Listen "Beauty & The baggage 👜"

Episode Synopsis

Let’s talk beauty… but not the way you’re used to!

In this episode, we rewind to our awkward teenage years to unpack how beauty standards shaped us. From random insecurities we picked up like freebies to the “designer baggage” we still carry today—it’s part rant, part free therapy.



So grab your coffee, wine, or sheet mask, and tune in—you’ll laugh, cringe, and probably relate way more than you expect. 💕
