Has keeping up with social media and body image ever made you want to just throw your phone out the window? Same. Today Sofia welcomes body activist and Sports Illustrated Model, Ella Halikas! Ella takes us on her journey starting as a ‘regular’ girl in Hawaii to now breaking industry standards by day, and walking runways by night. The girls dive into the pain and complexities that come with craving external validation, why your body should NEVER be a trend (even if it fits into the current one), and of course, the Ozempic craze that we can’t seem to escape. Finally, Ella gives us some tips and tricks so we don’t feel like a wet cat in front of a camera, including the iconic ‘smize’. Who knows, maybe this episode will lead you to becoming the next SI cover girl - but even if it doesn’t, you’ll definitely feel like you gained a sister that knows ALL of your best angles. Self luv is the best luv Sloots!
