Does The Modeling Industry HATE Tall Women? | The Dark Truths of Becoming A Tall Model

Today, we’re talking about posture. I don’t think I’ve ever spoken about this in depth on my podcast, which I find pretty weird because I feel like there are episodes where I said that I would do a whole episode on improving posture, but never actually did. And poor posture is a MAJOR tall girl/tall people problem so… But hey, better late than never. If you’re tall, you will understand this: low sinks, low tables, low countertops, low desks, the bottom of bookshelves, oh my… We wonder why we’re constantly in pain; we really need to start looking at the everyday things and everyday tasks that are affecting our posture negatively. It’s not just that, but it can also be trauma, bullying, etc. Let’s fix our poor posture together lol and explore the role posture plays in confident body language.

Today I’m sharing my story. I did say that I want to be more vulnerable on this podcast and share more with you guys as a goal for 2024.So this is me doing that and sharing my insecurities. I know I talk a lot about my experiences growing up and even now as a tall woman, but I never really spoke about why/how I became so insecure about my height.The thing is, yes, I’ve been bullied, shamed, and ridiculed because I’m taller than my peers, but that isn’t the reason why I became insecure about my height.

Today, we are talking about toxic friendships and how they are impacting your self esteem.This was actually a request from last year, and I know that last year was literally last week lol, but Podmas lowkey kinda distracted me from requests and honestly what better way to start the new year than by getting rid of the toxic people in your life?? This can really go for anyone, whether a toxic friend or toxic family member or toxic partner or co-worker. Yes, the dynamics of each relationship is different from the other but there’s one common theme: YOU NEED TO LEAVE THE SITUATION AS SOON AS YOU POSSIBLY CAN. Because let’s face it, one of the main reasons why tall women become insecure about their height is because of the people they’re surrounded by and what they’re saying to and about them. So what does a toxic relationship look like? And how can you leave a toxic situation?

Since we’re 2 days away from 2024, it’s time to start looking at our GOOOOOAALLLLSS. It’s so weird that goals (well really New Year’s resolutions) have such a bad connotation nowadays and I don’t really understand why. Like I’ll ask people “What are your goals for the new year?”, and they’ll be like 'oh I don’t have those; why would I have those?’ They’re more so like yeah nobody ever follows those. And I’m here like just because no one follows them that doesn’t mean you can’t follow them, right? Anyways, I just think that setting goals is great to do. Like you should be setting goals and trying to achieve them continuously. You don’t necessarily have to wait for the New Year to set/start them, but I just feel like it’s the beginning of a new chapter and the closing of an old one, so it kinda works that you can start something new in a new year. So what are my goals for 2024?
