Summary

Perfect on paper and in photographs -- That’s what you might assume about Gabrielle Korn’s life and career. She was named the youngest editor-in-chief in the history of Nylon Magazine. It was a dream job, and the perks that came with it were enviable.

Behind the scenes though, the story was different. In fact, perfection wouldn’t come close to defining the challenges Gabrielle faced in her life. In her new book, Gabrielle walks through her views and experience with internet feminism, impossible beauty standards in social media, shifting ideals about sexuality, and much more.

In this conversation, we’re talking about social media, the concept of ideal clients, powerful women, and more.

Content Warning: This episode discusses eating disorders.
