At seventeen, I bought cargo pants from the men's department and convinced myself it was about sizing. It wasn't. It was about teenage body image issues, low self-esteem, and internalized body shaming.
In this episode, I unpack the lie I was sold about my body - how weight gain, confidence struggles, and toxic beauty standards shaped the way I dressed and saw myself. I talk about hiding in oversized clothes, shrinking before anyone else could judge me, and only feeling "worthy" of style after weight loss.
This is a raw conversation about self-worth, body insecurity, fat shaming, and healing from long-term conditioning.
Turns out, I wasn't a tomboy. I was armored.
