In the wake of Adele’s weight loss controversy, Simone and Aja discuss their own perceptions of body image. They recall growing up in the early 2000s, a time before Instagram where big butts and curvy girls weren’t celebrated. Aja explains how she learned to love her body, while Simone discusses her continuous struggle towards self-love. Oh, and they pop off on Tik Tok diets and BBL-infested Instagram, which are only making things more difficult on young women. No worries though, they provide science-backed resources to help all of us on our journey towards a positive body image and healthy life. Special thank you to Lydia Straka for consulting on this topic.
