  • Insecurities and Social Media

    Warning: This episode will discuss eating disorders and body dysmorphia.

    On this episode of GTG, Lara, Makena, and Mallory will question what constitutes a healthy lifestyle and discuss how social media impacts body image. This episode was recorded a few weeks ago and there are a few things we want to address before we release this episode. We want our platform to highlight voices in the black community because we are three young white women with a ton to learn. We want to listen and grow and want this community to be a part of that struggle with our identity and role in our society. We recognize that black lives matter more than white fragility and discomfort.
