Ep 223. People pleasing, health anxiety and pregnancy pressure with Lauren Bravo
The Calmer You PodcastShow Notes
My guest today is Lauren Bravo, an author and award-winning journalist, writing about fashion, food, pop culture, travel, feminism and life. Her new book Probably Nothing is the answer to just how far sheer awkwardness can take someone. Funny and relatable, it’s a novel which digs into the eternal dilemma: life is short – so should you settle for perfectly fine? It’s perfect for fans of Dolly Alderton or Daisy Buchanan.
We discuss: -How people pleasing shows up for us -Lauren's struggle with health anxiety and perfectionism -The pressure to still be productive while pregnant
