Moana Founder Karina Irby On The Truth About Body Confidence & Staying Authentic

What does real confidence actually look like?

In this honest and refreshing conversation, I sit down with content creator and Moana founder Karina Irby to talk about body image, business challenges, social media pressure and choosing a life that feels right for you, even when it doesn't fit society's expectations.

Karina opens up about one of the toughest periods in her business journey, including the backlash surrounding her recent rebrand and the lessons she's learned about people-pleasing, staying true to yourself and trusting your instincts. She also shares how a vulnerable post about her eczema unexpectedly changed her life, sparked a movement of body acceptance and helped thousands of women feel less alone.

Karina also speaks candidly about her decision not to have children, the criticism that often comes with that choice, and what happiness looks like when you stop living by other people's expectations.

It's an episode packed with powerful reminders about self-acceptance, learning from your mistakes and living unapologetically
