Erika speaks with Bridgett Burrick Brown, who is the founder of Beyond Beauty Project, "a movement and multimedia platform that focuses on inspiring confidence and acceptance surrounding beauty, body image, and mental health." After two decades in the modelling industry, she decided that she no longer wanted to play a role in perpetuating an unattainable standard of beauty and has now made it her mission to help others get back in touch with themselves and connect with their bodies and beauty. She offers a refreshing and frank perspective on the body dysmorphia epidemic we are currently dealing with. Bridgett underlines how important it is to be mindful of the language we use with children, as well as ourselves.

Episode contains references to suicide, eating disorders, and child loss.
