Is Botox My Kind of Beauty? | Shoe Therapy

About this episode

In this episode, Sarah Wasilak explores the pressures of beauty standards and her personal struggle with the decision to get Botox.

Everyone around me seems to have a smooth forehead — but does that mean I should too? Welcome back to Shoe Therapy, a Dinner for Shoes podcast miniseries that consists of real talk in really good shoes. In this episode, host Sarah Wasilak asks the question so many of us are quietly wrestling with: Is botox my kind of beauty? At 33, Sarah opens up about feeling the pressure to have a smooth forehead in a world (and algorithm) that seems to expect it. She shares her honest back-and-forth on booking — and delaying — her botox appointment, why self-expression feels like her truest form of beauty, and how timeless pieces, like her outfit and favorite jewelry, remind her that originality never goes out of style.
