Hi my loves, I’m still on a short break but I couldn’t not bring this episode back to the surface. It’s one of the most honest things I’ve ever shared about my body image, the pressure to shrink, and what really goes on behind the filtered side of the industry.

Yep… we’re going there today, queens.

After years of lying about my size with Facetune and hiding behind story filters just to feel okay posting online, I became so dysmorphic that I truly started to hate myself.

From starving myself to fit in, to binge eating through heartbreak, to witnessing full-blown eating disorders and almost going down that path myself, this is what it was actually like behind the curated posts you see online.

In this episode, I’m sharing:

• How I was told to lose weight at a size 6

• The disordered ways I would prep for photo shoots

• The lies myself and so many influencers told using Facetune

• My thoughts on fitspo creators with zero transparency

• How gut health, trauma and stress were keeping my body stuck no matter what I did

If you’ve ever struggled with your body or felt the pressure to shrink to be accepted, I hope this episode reminds you that you’re not alone, and that your worth was never meant to be measured in numbers.
