Today, we have a special guest with us: Alexis Howard, co-founder of Etta Grove! Alexis and her 2 daughters founded Etta Grove as a way to address the gap in the women’s footwear market for extended shoe sizes. In honor of her grandmother, who was an entrepreneur, nurse, mother, and wife, Alexis works hard to spread this mission for women who are looking for extended shoe sizes but don’t want to sacrifice comfort and style. Tune in as we discuss why Etta Grove was founded, the process of making their shoes, tall girl advice, and more!

Social media is the topic of today’s episode. I actually talked about this before, but I was talking about how social media was ruining our confidence. But the thing is social media itself isn’t ruining your confidence, you are. How you specifically use these platforms ultimately will affect your self-esteem. Let’s talk about it. 

Social media can be such a beautiful place for tall women. You can find and connect with the tall girl community, participate in body positivity and body neutrality movements, and find positive representations of tall women in the media. But it’s also easy to get sucked into comparison culture and unrealistic beauty standards, negative comments, and pressures to look a certain way. 

Tune in to the full episode to learn more about the impact of social media on tall girls and how we can combat the negative effects, turning it from a negative to a positive!

Today’s episode topic is tall women downplaying their height, leading people to not take them seriously. I want to talk about the #1 reason why tall women feel the need to shrink themselves both figuratively and literally. This particular reason leads to tall women downplaying their height and presence and it can ultimately affect other people’s perceptions towards us. 

There are a number of ways that tall women downplay their height. Hunching over. Speaking in a softer or high-pitched voice. Avoiding heels. Wearing clothes that make them appear shorter. Are you guilty of any of these?

But why do we feel the need to act a certain way? Tune in to the full episode to find out!

Today we’re talking about something tall people often face: judgment. Yes, judgment interestingly enough. This is part of being judged based on your physical appearance; it’s just not widely spoken about enough. Because when people think about being judged about your physical appearance, they think about skin color, hair, even tattoos and piercings. Not so much height. 

Have you ever been judged based on your height or physical appearance? Chances are the answer is yes. And today I wanna talk about why people do that and what you can do about it. As tall people, especially as tall women, I’m sure that we’ve had our fair share of judgment. The looks and stares. The sly comments. The stupid assumptions. The inappropriate questions. And it feels like it never stops. 

Tune in to the full episode to see how you can deal with height-based judgment!

So, I’m a college graduate??? Well, right now only half of one. I have 2 graduations; one already happened last week and this coming Tuesday is the second and final one. And you’re probably reading this like “2 graduations???? Huh????” YUP TWO GRADUATIONS, and ya know, I deserve both of them too, especially considering the fact that I didn’t even have a proper high school graduation lol. 

So, I figured why not do a little Q&A/life updates episode; I haven’t done one of these since last year and since I’m moving on to the next chapter of my life, it’s kinda like, might as well! I did a little poll on Stories as well as that little notes feature on Instagram asking you guys to give me questions and all that jazz. So I took questions from there as well as my DMs and kind of compiled the repetitive questions into a few topics that I will discuss today!

For today’s episode, we will be talking about confidence. Well, one aspect of it. Summer is right around the corner (literally with the way that the weather is changing) and it’s time to be our best selves. Well, I mean we should be our best selves all year round but tbh it’s pretty hard to do that in the winter when it’s dark most of the day and we’re indoors all the time. 

But the summer is UNACCEPTABLE. And it’s a great time to start getting rid of the toxic traits that we have developed throughout the winter, one of them being negative self-talk. Negative self-talk plays a huge role in our low confidence and low self-esteem. 

“Oh I’m too tall for these heels…”; “Oh I wish I was shorter…”; “Oh I’m intimidating others with my height..” I’m sure that as tall women we’ve had our fair share of negative self-talk. So, today I will be providing tips and tricks on how to combat negative self-talk! Tune in to the full episode for more!

Today we’re talking about clothing, which is a very popular topic for the tall community, for obvious reasons of course. Many brands, especially for women, make pieces for the average height, meaning that these pieces are often too short for us and end at an awkward length. 

And yes, you can scour the Internet for hacks but what better place to get tips than from the tall fashionistas themselves? Because if you’re tall, you know the struggle of finding clothes that actually fit. So this past week, I asked some tall fashion influencers for their #1 fashion tip and here’s what they had to say…Tune in to the full episode below!
