505. Coaching Hotline: What Humility Actually Means & Why You Wear Makeup (and Whether It Matters)
About this episode
This episode discusses the personal choice of wearing makeup and the concept of humility in relation to body image and self-judgment.
Why do we wear makeup, and does it even matter? In this Coaching Hotline episode, I answer a listener question about makeup and body image. I explain why wearing makeup is a personal choice and often a form of self-expression, not a reflection of whether you have done the inner work to love your body. I also tackle a question about humility and how it can be useful in managing your mind. This episode shows how examining the thoughts behind your choices, about humility, appearance, and social expectations can shift your perspective and reduce unnecessary self-judgment.
