Eating disorders. While many have an idea of what eating disorders are, there are many misconceptions that people might have about them. It might be a difficult concept for someone who has never struggled with eating disorders to understand why people develop eating disorders. A little disclaimer here that we are not professionally-trained doctors who can diagnose the listeners or give any medical advice but what we would like to do in this first part episode is to educate people about the different types of eating disorders and to hear stories from people who have struggled with eating disorders. 

Have you heard of the term “Toxic Masculinity”? According to the Internet, the concept of toxic masculinity is used in academic and media discussions of masculinity to refer to certain cultural norms that are associated with harm to society and men themselves.

What is the difference between “trying” and “doing”? How can one experience personal growth from trying things? Should we be trying harder at certain things (i.e. saving the environment)?

On this week’s episode of UskWHY, Alvin, Aloysius, Eve and Melissa discuss on the broad theme of “trying”.

Having casual conversations with our friends at times may make us unaware of the times we hurt them. Why must we be careful of our words? When does “It’s just a joke” be too far? How do we cope when someone made an insensitive remark to us? Li Wen, Josalyn, Regina and Erin discuss on today’s topic of UskWHY featuring a familiar voice.

Let’s talk about social media. It is no doubt that social media presents things in a way that makes them unachievable and is slowly feeding our insecurities. This leads to negative feelings that we have about ourselves and having the need to attain perfectionism, which could all contribute to our insecurities.

In today’s episode, besides sharing about our insecurities with one another, we will also delve into ways we can overcome it. Tune in to our podcast to find out how social media and societal pressure makes youths of today feel!

Also, we are excited to share with you the debut of our new intro music!

Have you ever encountered a situation where you hated your body? Or simply thought that you didn’t look good enough?

In this episode, the team discussed a topic that’s prevalent, yet not commonly talked about in our society - body image. More specifically, body neutrality! We reflected on our own experiences, as well as how to achieve body neutrality.

Have you ever looked at the mirror and hated what you saw? Do you find yourself comparing your appearance with that of others? If your answer is yes, this podcast is for you!

This new season of UskWHY is for youth, by youth! We will be releasing a new episode this season on the first Wednesday of each month.
