22 December 2023 - Perceiving Our True Selves

Listen Later

In today's episode, I speak with Lisa Haukom: a dear friend, photographer, and developer of The Self-Portrait Method - a course designed to help us learn to see who we truly are.  Lisa and I talk about topics as diverse as self-objectification, why we must approve of ourselves first, and the claptrap of a French Bitch.
