What happens when beauty, shame, and ambition collide? In this episode, Krista sits down with renowned couples therapist Dr. Molly Burrets to dissect the invisible burden so many women carry—the pressure to be attractive, accomplished, and "enough."

Ahead, they reveal hard truths about self-image in the age of social media, untangling where validation comes from and why it's never as secure as we hope. Krista + Dr. Molly bravely unpack the emotional armor women wear to cope with comparison, aging, and fear of rejection. 

You'll hear powerful personal stories that illuminate how our earliest relationships shape adult attachment, and why "winning" by society's standards never guarantees true connection or satisfaction. This convo will shift how you see yourself, your body, and your relationships forever.
