At my own birthday party, a guest handed me a present and then said something so shocking I lost my words. Later that evening, one detail about her behaviour explained everything. And it had nothing to do with me.

This episode is about the comments people make about our appearance: the cruel ones, the “nice” ones that don’t feel nice, and the ones we make about ourselves when no one’s listening. I share stories I’ve never told on the podcast before,  including the most controversial newsletter I ever wrote, the night a woman hid where her dress was from, and why receiving a genuine compliment can feel just as uncomfortable as being criticised.

Plus: listener audio questions on handling backhanded compliments and making wardrobe decisions about pieces that didn’t get worn this season.
