Welcome back to another episode of Crossroads and Conversations! I’m Geeti, and as always, I’m joined by my best friend and co-host, Komal. Today, we’re diving deep into a topic that has shaped and, at times, burdened our lives: the relentless societal expectations for women to look perfect at every stage of life.
From our teenage years, we’ve been bombarded with messages about having perfectly styled hair, acne-free skin, achieving the ideal height and fair complexion. As we grew older, the pressure only intensified—maintaining the “ideal” weight, and even the unrealistic expectation to remain ageless in our 60s. And let’s not forget the post-pregnancy pressure to snap back to a pre-baby body.
In this episode, we’ll share our personal experiences growing up under these pressures and the profound impact it had on our self-worth and mental health. We’ll also discuss how these expectations are becoming even more stringent for the next generation, extending beyond women to boys and men as well.
But it’s not all doom and gloom. We’ll explore actionable steps we can take to challenge and change these harmful standards. Together, we’ll uncover ways to embrace our authentic selves and empower others to do the same.
So, grab your favorite cup of chai or coffee, settle in, and join us as we break the mold and redefine beauty on our own terms.
Because life is about the conversations we have at the crossroads—the moments that shape us, connect us, and remind us of our shared humanity.
Our episodes will come out every first Wednesday of the month, we hope you will join us and our tribe.
