Ep. 08 - The Beauty Industry: Let's talk about it...

About this episode

Abbie Tagney discusses her experiences with the beauty industry and the impact of societal pressures on self-acceptance.

We live within a beauty industry that's hellbent on profiting from us feeling like we're 'not enough' as we are. In this solocast episode I get real about my experiences of being brainwashed by the mainstream beauty industry narrative and what happens when we do the work to disentangle ourselves from it.
