This episode packs a punch.

I talk about the psychology of body image with Professor Viren Swami (Anglia Ruskin University) and we dig deep into cultural attitudes to beauty, how these have changed over time, as well as the recent increased demand for cosmetic surgery.

From the relationship between muscle and masculinity to the social comparisons we draw with others, this episode explores the NUANCES of conversation around body image.

I hope that it serves you well <3
