Summary

We can all agree that the early aughts did not make body acceptance easy. Remy and Emily share a DST listener’s Glamour article (shoutout Michelle), all about this topic and how the early 2000s fostered body image issues. Emily brings up that v problematic Paris Hilton book (you know, the one that recommends clubbing to dance away calories), which leads into a convo about how pop culture and TV glamorize thinness. Re: Gilmore Girls and the infamous Kim Kardashian and Marilyn Monroe dress situation. Then onto a listener-submitted Dear DST about traveling to warmer places in the winter, being with in-laws for the holidays, and the body image struggles that come with. Remy and Emily relate to the struggle and share some advice on how to set boundaries. Check out our latest promo codes here: https://betches.com/promos Learn more about your ad choices.
