Show Notes
This week we unpack the trends shaping body image, health, and the messages we're bombarded with, and why strength, longevity, and mental wellbeing matter more than any trend.
We look at how social media, Hollywood, and pharmaceuticals are shaping the way we see health and beauty, from the resurgence of heroin chic to the rise of GLP-1s and peptides for weight management.
We also talk about why strength training matters for healthy ageing, how much control society has over our standards of beauty, and the pull of influencer culture and social validation.
Plus, some practical takeaways: focusing on what you can control, the risks of unregulated supplements, and how to feel healthy and confident at any age.
