Show Notes

Actress Sai Pallavi saying how her first movie's director being confident about her acne and her unique voice gave a lot of validation to her eventually being confident about herself. Do we sometimes need external validation too in being body positive?

I explore this topic from my own story of being bullied for my skin colour, curls even spectacles and how i got through it eventually. I tried to dissect what must be the reason why many of us end up with insecurities about our bodies.

I also talk to my bestie Gotha haripriya as she went through the same when she shaved her hair fully bald, a while back and went through insecurities for a brief period when everyone's encouragement made her start enjoying a short hairstyle eventually.. Do listen and give your comments on my youtube channel or my insta dm.. i'd like to hear what was your takeaway from the video.
