Why do so many women fear looking old more than getting old? In this episode, I explore how we live in a beauty sick culture—a youth-obsessed culture that teaches us to value beauty, youth, and appearance above wisdom, experience, and authenticity.

We’ll talk about the difference between aging gracefully and fearing the changes in our appearance, how women and beauty standards fuel constant anxiety, and why the anti-aging pressure from the beauty industry keeps us trapped. From wrinkles and self-image struggles to the cultural myths that undermine women’s self-worth, I dive into how we can begin to embrace age and challenge these unrealistic expectations.

If you’ve ever felt the weight of beauty industry myths or struggled with the fear of looking old, this conversation will inspire you to rethink what true beauty and self-worth really mean.
