What's up? What's going on? I'm so happy you're here. My name is Shaline and this is a Shaline show.

It's a podcast about life and today we're going to talk about something that apparently 80% of us

feel at times when we look in the mirror and that is dissatisfied with our appearance.

Now don't worry, it's not all doom and gloom. I'm going to provide for you plenty of solutions,

options, answers to questions, what to do, what not to do. Should you get cosmetic surgery,

should you go on a dramatic diet, should you dye your hair, should you look into leg lengthening

operations overseas? Answer to all of these questions, plus perhaps even eliminating some of the

toxic triggers you have in your life. Today on the Shaline show, let's get to it.

I remember when my daughter, Sierra, was, you know, I think probably I'd say like three or four

and if you have girls, you know what I'm talking about. There's this stage where they are

infatuated with watching themselves in the mirror. They just can't get enough. Little boys,

I mean, I only had one. I only had one of each, but I don't remember Brock doing this. But Sierra

would spend hours just looking at herself and twirling and making faces and dancing and

imitating and going through a series of characters and you could just tell that we didn't need

toys. All we needed was a mirror. She loved looking at her reflection. I don't know that little boys

do so much, but babies do. Babies love their reflection. We're bored thinking that we're pretty

dang cute. We don't worry about our weight, our appearance, our hair color, any of those things.

But somewhere along the way, it changes. In preparation for today's show, I did some research and

learned some pretty fascinating details. First of all, what day of the year do you suspect

the greatest number of people go online and search things like I hate my body or I'm fat. I'm ugly.

Well, when I asked this of my family, my son said Valentine's Day, my daughter said,

I don't know, right before summer, my husband said New Year's Day and he was the closest.
