why beauty standards are stealing our individuality…

it's a new episode of live a little, nikki is diving deep into something deeply personal: beauty standards.

nikki talks about how the constant exposure to our images makes beauty standards today more intense than in previous times, the frustrating packaging of wellness, self-care and "glow up culture" and what all of this means to someone growing up with a facial difference.

nikki introduces the concept of roots vs flowers - your flowers are what people notice first (your appearance), but your roots are what keep you alive when nobody's clapping (your kindness, humour, empathy, resilience). she talks about the Alice in Wonderland metaphor of painting roses red and how we internalise comments and comparisons... for better or for worse.

if you've ever felt like your appearance defines your worth, spent your life editing yourself to fit a standard or felt trapped by beauty culture... this one's for you.
