Today on Vulnerable, I’m sharing a Millennial Moment where I take a look at the effects of brands like Barbie, Victoria’s Secret, and Abercrombie & Fitch. What do these brands have in common? They have lived through Y2K and have now completely rebranded to become a better, less problematic version of themselves.

Is Barbie REALLY a feminist icon? How did Victoria’s Secret affect young millennial women? Did Abercrombie’s photographer prey on young models? Tune in now to find out.
