135: Body Hair, Don't Care

Description:

How do you feel about body hair?

Do you shave, wax, tweeze, trim or laser?

Today’s episode is a listener requested topic: body hair. I think this is a great conversation for women, particularly mothers, as we learn to relate to and love our bodies as they change through the journey of motherhood. And so yes, it’s a conversation about body hair - specifically some of my thoughts and feelings and how they’ve evolved over the years, but it’s so much more than that. It lends itself to a greater exploration of our paradigm of beauty, body positivity and what we want to be an example of for our children.

Plus I reference an interesting article from Bustle about the history of shaving. Fascinating to learn where some of our societal habits come from and how they impact our norms and standards.
