Karamo: How to Actually Do Self-Love (January, 2021)

Karamo: How to Actually Do Self-Love (January, 2021)

With the approach of the new year (and perhaps New Year's resolutions) we've decided to replay a very popular episode, featuring one of the most prominent proselytizers for self-love, Karamo from Queer Eye.


Karamo was the first openly gay black man on reality TV when he appeared on MTV's The Real World Philadelphia back in 2004. When he left TV and found out he was a dad, he got custody of his son, adopted his son's half-brother and worked for a decade as a social worker before returning to the media world. He's now the culture expert on the blockbuster Netflix reboot of Queer Eye. Karamo also hosts his own podcast and is the author of a memoir, as well as a children's book, which he co-wrote with his son.


In today's conversation, we talk about why, for Karamo, learning to love himself started with learning to love his first name; how he overcame negative messages inside his abusive childhood home; why men struggle so much with the concept of self-love; and the areas in his own life where he struggles the most to practice what he preaches.
